"An expressive and elegant vintage, perfect for lovers of this appellation"

Powerful and full-bodied, this wine captivates from the very first sip with its intensity, generous aromas of dark fruit, and toasty notes. Its full-bodied palate reveals a beautiful roundness supported by silky tannins. The minerality, with notes of flint and graphite, adds depth and freshness to the overall profile.
