Winemaker's notes:
A wine with a developing colour, forming a garnet-red ring around the darker centre. The nose shows the richness of aromas from the terroir, with touches of blackcurrant, truffles and touches of tobacco. A complex wine, showing a fine combination of fruit aromas and aromas resulting from maturation in oak. Half of the blend was formed in oak barriques, while the rest was stored in neutral vessels to keep the fruity flavours of the final blend.
