The nose is complex, fruity and offers a small concentration. It reveals notes of blackberry cream and slight notes of dried fig, flowers as well as slight notes of liquorice. The palate is fresh, mineral, nicely built, full, fat, soft and silky. In the mouth this wine expresses notes of blackberry, red fruits and slight notes of flint associated with small notes of sweet spices and coffee on the finish. Tannins are well built. Good length and beautiful persistence in mouth.
