Summary
It has aromas of red fruits, plums, cherries and raisins, highlighted by notes of toast, coconut and vanilla from aging in new French oak barrels. On the palate the wine shows its best with a sweet entry and softest tannins that provide smoothness, volume and meatiness. The ripe fruit flavors stand perfectly amalgamated with spicy and smoky wood, leaving a pleasant lingering finish.
