Decadent and well-rounded wine with a dark, mellow colour, showcasing a cohesive cohesion of acidity, tannins, and dryness. The nose is shaped by by black fruit, plums, and bold chocolate, with a gentle trace of sweetness. The impression is similarly well-balanced, with a subtle black fruit and plum presence, accompanied by a lingering aftertaste. This wine is a true 'cosmopolitan', with a sophisticated and elegant character. A truly satisfying experience.
