Description:

Purple color and purple reflections. A structured wine that offers a complex aromatic palette combining spice (black cayenne pepper), black berries (blueberries, blackberries) and sweet cocoa notes. The structure is dominated by fine tannins that bring out on the palate all the intensity of the terroir (garrigue, thyme, rosemary) for a fresh finish with menthol notes.
