At the first smell, this wine immediately offers us the pure fruitiness of ripe cherries, on a carpet of leather and cedar wood aromas, then after a few turns in the glass, the scents of marzipan, griotte cherries in liqueur join. All aromas are dense, intense and speak of the maturity of this wine. Towards the end, we perceive hints of cinnamon and animal notes. <\/p>\n
