Description
Tasting Note
To the eye
Bronze tones combined with the intense depth of a great red wine
To the nose
The nobility of red berries: hints of red currant, cherry and wild strawberry. A spicy touch, not unlike Special Cuvée.
To the palate
A subtle combination of structure, length and vivacity, with a tannic finish due to the adjunction of red wine. Bubbles as fine as velvet with flavours of wild berries.
