Cabernet Sauvignon

On the nose, this Cabernet Sauvignon offers an intricate array of aromas. It opens with bold notes of ripe blackberries and cassis, seamlessly integrated with more nuanced hints of cassis and violets. The bouquet is further enriched by well-integrated oak influences, providing layers of vanilla, toasted cedar, and a subtle touch of mocha, adding sophistication and depth. 

The palate is equally impressive, characterized by a full-bodied and robust structure. The flavors are a rich echo of the nose, with dark fruit notes of plum and blackcurrant taking center stage, complemented by a luxurious texture. The oak aging imparts a silky smoothness to the tannins, which are substantial yet refined, framing the fruit beautifully. Notes of dark chocolate, a hint of anise, and a trace of leather emerge as the wine opens up , leading to a complex and lingering finish that leaves a lasting impression of elegance and balance.
