Tasting Notes

Deep ruby red color. Intense, nicely broad, with typical scents of red fruits on the nose.
Elegant taste, soft, full-bodied, balanced with a pleasant mineral finish. Tannins and acidity proceed in harmony offering a harmonious wine albeit with a resolute character. Slight hint of wood to crown its complexity.

A Pinot Noir with a strong fruit scent and a light and elegant wood note. Definitely a complex but fresh red wine.
