Very complex and potent without losing elegance. Ripe red and blue berries predominate on the nose with a seductive pastry note and interesting notes of coffee, chocolate. The palate reaffirms the aromatic sensations with light notes of dairy and nutmeg. Well balanced with very round tannins, tremendous structure, and a very long finish.

複雜、有力而不失優雅。成熟的紅色和藍色的漿果為主,伴以誘人的烤烘、咖啡、巧克力等芳香。口感與聞香一致,並帶有奶油和荳蔻味。單寧圓潤、結構宏大,餘韻久久不散。
