A compact deep garnet colored red wine with a very attractive and fruity aroma of ripe black blackberries, sour cherries and ripe plums, complemented with a hint of balsamic, smoked and subtle tertiary hints of
 almond and black chocolate. In the mouth there is a play of elegance, volume and structure, with concentrated fruit and herbs in the long and impressive finish. A wine with excellent potential for further evolution in the bottle, but can already be drunk now
Limited production of 2,800 bottles 
 
This wine is a tribute to those who felt inspired for the one who always inspired us. It's the best of each person, reciprocated in the form of wine.
