TASTING NOTES
• The nose is rich and ripe, first full of flowers then going on to reveal its fruity aromas with sweet, suave scents. Its taste is very powerful with a pronounced minerally character that enhances the fruit and fine vegetal flavors. Its mellowness harmonizes perfectly with its vivacity on a solid structure that illustrates perfectly the special nature of the wine.
