Tasting notes

In view, we appreciate a bright and deep red color with violet hues. The noise is of a complex wine, with notes of red fruits like blackberry, plum and some oral. The palate is elegant with a soft, friendly attack, with good acidity in mouth, and a long creamy finish with cherry and spice aromas.
