Inky bright-rimmed ruby. An exotically perfumed bouquet displays sexy black and blue fruit liqueur scents complicated by suggestions of potpourri vanilla and incense.

Rich but also impressively balanced with velvety tannins building slowly on a strikingly long penetrating finish.
This rare delicacy produced in phenomenal vintages receives 5 years of gravefull aging, with 2 years in oak barrels. Crimson color, fine complexity and beautiful oak nuances, flow into smooth vanilla notes, rich black cherry fruit with subties hints of leather, balsamic and spice. Excellent depth and pure finish.
