Tasting note
Broad aromatic expression: forest floor, undergrowth, pine needles and discreet notes of fennel, then giving way to black fruits (blackberry, blueberry), black plum and hints of liquorice. In the mouth, some chocolate, mushroom/truffle and hints of smoke, showing the good integration of the barrel. Monumental in the mouth, with several layers providing fascinating complexity. Refined tannins combine with good acidity (discreet but present), enhancing the formidable structure. Eminently gastronomic wine with great potential for long cellaring.
