Nine months ageing in American oak barrels.

Aromas
Intense red berry fruit bouquet, where toffee and eucalyptus notes from the barrel ageing clearly show through, blending in with fresh ripe fruit and licorice aromas.

Subtle attack on the palate developing into a powerful and elegant mouthfeel, showing a wide array of toasted and spicy balanced wine of great length, inviting us to enjoy the aftertaste calmly.
