Characteristics: An intense dark ruby color. Complex aromas of cherries and fine spices are well-balanced with pleasant acidity, minerals, and ripe tannins. Medium to fullbodied and elegant wine with a long, fruity aftertaste. We recommend opening the bottle one hour before tasting the wine. The aroma is fully developed through the process of decanting.
