GRAPE

AGING
Careful ageing in a selection of French and American oak barrels for 12 months.
COLOR
Cherry red in colour, star bright and with medium intensity.
AROMA
On the nose, the first aromas to appear are those of the barrel ageing; the most evident being vanilla, smoky notes, caramel and roast coffee beans. On gently swirling the glass, these combine with aromas of black fruits. The blend of grapes give it a complex structure and aromatic intensity.
PALATE
Powerful, deep and balanced on the palate, with velvety tannins. A sensation of sweetness, certainly due to the high alcohol level. Great length, and a fine fruity finish.
