This Merlot impresses with its full-bodied, almost jammy character and creamy, fruity notes . Black and red fruits dominate the nose, harmoniously complemented by spicy nuances and subtle hints of wood . On the palate, it displays a silky-elegant structure , lively acidity, and perfectly polished tannins that underscore the clear fruit expression. The long finish reveals subtle hints of leather and vanilla , which transition into a luxurious, warm, fruity finish.
