NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER

A robust and structured bouquet with notes of red and black berries, a hint of tomato and eggplant, leathery traces, tree bark, a touch of sesame, and moderate oak tones.The palate offers relatively cool, tangy, and dense fruit, along with nutty, slightly underbrushy, and earthy notes. It features fine, youthful tannins, ashy and tobacco hints, good sustainability, a very traditional character, a hint of dried flowers in the background, a touch of iodine, salty mineral tones, and a very good, firm, juicy, and spicy, yet relatively cool finish.
