Tasting Notes

Ruby red with purple tiles.
Elegant and complex bouquet where aromas of low mount, thyme, Rosemary are perceived. Tobacco and leather notes.
In mouth it is round, balanced and warm. Nuances of fruits in liqueur and notes of citrus fruits in jam.

The 2004 Reserva reflects the greatness of the vintage. Purple in color, it reveals aromas of smoke, Asian spices, incense, blackberry, and licorice. Dense and layered on the palate, it will benefit from another 2-3 years of bottle age. Drink it through 2019 if not longer.
