Tasting notes
▾

Deep ruby red with purple highlights. Expressive and complex nose of ripe purple-black fruit, dark fig, and dried red cherry with captivating notes of sandalwood, herbs, and savoury spice. The Rhône-like character is unmistakable. Fruit-forward and juicy on the palate with balanced extraction and Old-World elegance. Medium to full-bodied with subtle tannins and a solid structure. The cool Atlantic winds preserve bright acidity and enhance aromatic complexity. Long and dry finish with persistent dark fruit, pepper, and subtle earthy character reminiscent of classic Syrah.
