Winemaker’s note
Bright ruby red colour. The bouquet is fragrant and persisting, which reminds immediately of the cherry and the sour black cherry. On the palate, the entry is dry, lightly tannic: with time, it becomes softer and velvety with an agreeable aftertaste.

Winemaker’s note
Ruby red colour with garnet hues. Subtle bouquet with hints of sour black cherry, wild berries and violet accompanied by vanilla’s nuances. On the palate, it’s round and full of body, with a persistent and slightly tannic aftertaste.
