Nose: Intensity of the nose with aromas of raspberry and red fruit jam mixed with scents of caramel and a hint of smoke. After aeration, a feeling of freshness and notes of blackcurrant and strawberry jam.
Mouth: A supple and round attack on the palate that increases in power. Aromatic return on caramelized black fruits, thyme and grilled dried fruits.
