Tasting Notes
Bright red-berry and stony-mineral character to this elegant Riserva, with a tinge of vanilla accompanying the fruit from start to finish. Full-bodied with round, soft tannins and the same blend of vivid, creamy red berries through the finish.

Tasting Notes: Spiced cherries, currants, dark chocolate, licorice and nutmeg on the nose, following through to a medium to full body with juicy acidity and very fine but firm and tense tannins. Focused and lingering. Drink or hold.
