"Fiori secchi, prugne nere e foglie di tè in questo vino rosso delicato e dal carattere mediterraneo. Si definisce e completa con note di mirto selvatico in sottofondo. Corpo pieno, tannini soffici e poco estratti ma di buona polimerizzazione ed un finale energico e dal buon grip. Bevi ora fino al 2026."

Zupackendes, dichtes Tannin am Gaumen, sehr gut strukturiert, dunkle Frucht, erdige Töne im hinteren Bereich, wirkt noch verschlossen, wird mit zunehmender Öffnung aber runder und offener."

"Aromas of scorched earth, brimstone and French oak form the nose. On the oak-driven palate, you'll find licorice, roasted coffee bean, vanilla and prune alongside close-grained tannins. It closes on a saline note. Kerin O?Keefe"
