This wine is a perfect choice for those who appreciate the finesse and subtlety of Pinot Noir.

NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER

This is an elegant and complex red wine with aromas of ripe cherry, earthy notes, and spices.On the palate, it has a medium-plus body, lively acidity, and a long finish with flavors of dried herbs, tobacco, and hints of sweet oak and minerality. The tannin structure is well-balanced, allowing for a smooth and enjoyable sip. A great choice for a dinner party or special occasion. Would match perfectly a number of dishes, from poultry to salmon. Drink now or keep a few years more to let aromas and flavors develop.
