This wine has a rich, intense ruby colour. It offers aromas of dark red cherries, blackberries, and ripe cranberries. On the palate, it features soft tannins and vibrant freshness, leading to a balanced midpalate and a luscious, lingering finish with notes of ripe black plum, raspberries, blackberry coulis, licorice, and mocha.
