Tasting Notes

Nose: "A refreshing, sensual expression of the senses, redolent of red and black berries. The exquisite feel of a rich and complex aromatic amplitude (bilberry, gooseberry, peony). Beautifully refined, mature olfactory notes, respectfully running the gamut of the inimitable scent of fragrant roses and crystalized violets."

Palate: "Tactile impact of restrained yet bewitching power and, at the same time, finesse. The harmonious fulfilment of delicious flavors and pastries (panettone, cherry clafoutis). A delicate mouthfeel progressing towards a hint of chalkiness in a long finish redolent of cedarwood and blood orange jelly."
