This red wine presents a beautiful, deep hue that beckons as much as it delights the senses. On the palate, it displays a pleasingly full-bodied character, balanced by a vibrant acidity that enhances its overall structure and refreshes the taste buds. The fruit intensity is prominent, revealing rich notes of dark cherry, plum, and subtle hints of blackberry, all harmoniously intertwined with soft, velvety tannins that provide a luxurious mouthfeel.
