- This wine has an intense red and blue colour. It has notes of red and black fruits, and its balance with some spices makes it complex and delicate. In the mouth is persistent and pleasant, with an excellent elegance. We can pair this wine with different types of food or enjoy it alone. With both structure and finesse in equal measures, this flagship blend combines plum and cherry fruit with violets, fresh herbs, and smoky, spicy notes. The medium to full palate shows appealingly juicy fruit alongside plush tannins and a touch of bitter chocolate on the finish.
