The aromas are intense, broad, with notes of sweet flowers, spices, citrus and yellow fruit and toasted. The wine is at the same time powerful, very concentrated, "enveloping", delicate and tonic.

This wine has delicate aromas of ripe yellow fruit, spices and toasted bread. The wine is rich, full-bodied, with this "upholstery" and sweet side that we have on all vintages, all with persistence on the palate and a lot of finesse and complexity.

The subtle aromas of flowers, spices and iodine have also a well-melted oak hint. The wine is coated, silky, dense while keeping a very delicate grain, elegant and very long.
