Nose (Aroma):

On the nose, it offers aromas of ripe blackberries, dark cherries, and plum, layered with subtle notes of Mediterranean herbs, spice, and a touch of earthiness. Gentle hints of vanilla or cocoa from oak aging may also be present.

Palate (Taste):

The palate is medium- to full-bodied, with lush flavors of black and red fruits, complemented by soft tannins and balanced acidity. Notes of spice, chocolate, and subtle earthy undertones provide depth and complexity, while the smooth texture makes it approachable and enjoyable.

Finish:

The finish is warm, long, and persistent, leaving impressions of ripe dark fruits, gentle spice, and a hint of minerality.
