2017 6x75cl

• 75cl bottle

Deep crimson in colour with bluish rims, this wine seduces at first sight. Elegant and mysterious on the nose, it shows floral notes of violets and sweet melon, well accompanied by the typical spicy notes of Carmenere, which show up at the beginning of its complex bouquet. Allowed to breathe, the wine slowly displays notes of redcurrants and pomegranate complemented by aromas of herbs like thyme and rosemary. Finally, the aromatic closure of this lovely wine is led by notes of roasted tomatoes and black pepper that give way to the desired flavours on the palate, filling the mouth with juiciness, fruitiness and different textures.
