The bouquet shows aromas of black fruits (blackcurrant, blackberry), red fruits (cherry, redcurrant) and earthy undertones. The palate shows notes of truffle, leather and spice with serious smoky aromas then a rich red berry hit punctuated by tart cherry and pomegranate fruit over firm tannins. It blossoms, asserting a well-built and perfectly convincing structure on a silky finish.
