Tasting Notes
The bouquet reveals aromas of black cherry, wild raspberry, rose petal, forest floor, and subtle spice. On the palate, the wine is layered and precise, offering concentrated red and dark fruit supported by fine tannins and vibrant acidity. Earthy undertones, crushed stone, and delicate oak nuances emerge through a long, focused finish.

Investment & Collectibility
