Medium purple with bright reflections. Very open and expressive: floral and spicy, with rosehip and fresh red fruit, alongside well-integrated vanilla. This wine positively radiates! On the palate, it is incredibly soft—truly velvety. While the nose is high-toned, the fruit character is notably darker on the palate, with plum and bramble. There is no harshness; instead, the wine is inviting, drawing you in with immense energy at its firm core. Perfectly balanced, medium tannins. Presenting beautifully now, it is a pure joy—succulent, stimulating, and impeccably polished. Perhaps lacking ultimate depth for now, but a stellar performance nonetheless. A great wine.
Potential for more points.
Drink from 2029 through 2043.
