NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER

This Favia La Magdalena is a deep and complex Cabernet Sauvignon.On the nose, it offers rich aromas of dark cherry, blackberry, cassis, and sweet tobacco. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied and juicy, with flavors of dark berry fruit, anise, and a hint of licorice. The finish is long and persistent, with well-integrated tannins and a lingering sweetness.
