Palate: On the palate, the wine is powerful and structured, with firm yet silky tannins. The flavors of black fruits harmoniously blend with spicy and mineral notes, offering great complexity. The texture is velvety, and the finish is long, marked by freshness that beautifully balances the wine’s richness.
