FAMILY RESERVE 2019
Taste and flavour profile
Intense red colour with violet reflections. On the nose hints of blackberry, black current, and raspberry together with floral hints of elderberry, and rosemary, with a light note of liquorice (Cabernet Franc), Vanilla, and Chocolate Powder (Petit Verdot). In the mouth, it has a soft and enveloping entrance with smooth and compact tannins and closes with sweetness and great depth.
