Deep purplish ruby red. Very stinky attack on the nose that wore off with around 10 minutes in the glass. Tons of bell peppers with a little bit of dark cocoa and perfumes notes in the finish. Dark attack on the palate with smooth yet moderate tannins (6.5/10). Solid layers starting with greenery on the palate with dried red cherries and earthy undertones. Medium bodied with a dry and lengthy finish. Drink till 2025.
