Wine Description
The wine presents a deep and bright magenta color, captivating the
eyes with its intense and alluring hue. Its vibrancy hints at the richness and depth
that lie within. Prepare for a brooding and enticing bouquet that unfolds with each inhale. The aroma is filled with luscious blackberries and ripe plums, exuding a sense of opulence and abundance. A subtle hint of mocha adds a touch of richness and depth, complementing the dark fruit notes. As the bouquet evolves, a delicate touch of mint and spice emerges, providing a refreshing and aromatic complexity. The experience is rounded off with a soft purple violet perfume, adding a floral elegance to the overall bouquet.
This wine is a true powerhouse, delivering both elegance and complexity. Dark
juicy fruits take the lead, their flavours intertwining with richness and intensity. As the
wine progresses on the mid-palate, a delightful richness of spice emerges, adding
layers of complexity and intrigue. The wine showcases a beautifully structured
nature, with fine but firm tannins that contribute to a velvety texture and provide a
solid framework. The finish is long and persistent, leaving a lasting impression of the
wine's depth and character.
