Nose Aromas of very ripe red fruit and spice with toastiness, and smokiness due both to our terroir and long barrel ageing. Palate

With all the complexity from the fruit

and it's one of those wines that changes every time you come back to the glass

On the palate it is delicate and smooth

The old vines and the high altitude contribute to great minerality and complexity
