Dark, dense ruby. Dense, intensely spicy bouquet. Lots of black ripe fruit, coffee, tobacco, roasted nuts, dried fruits, toasted wood. Complex and demanding. A soft and flattering start on the palate. Then full and majestic, again ripe, black fruit. It is accompanied by sweet spicy nuances and notes of roasted wood, mocha and black pepper. Ripe, robust tannins. Long, lasting finale in excellent balance.
