This extraordinary wine is crafted with meticulous precision, with each grape hand-counted by the producer and cryo-extraction used to draw out the purest juice. Aged for 48 months in a barrel, it displays a beautiful, vibrant colour in the glass. The nose is delicately peppery, lifted by subtle hints of vanilla. On the palate, it is velvety and intensely focused, bursting with saturated fruit flavours that unfold in layers of blueberry, strawberry jam, cigar box, and saffron, with a refreshing touch of mint emerging towards the finish. Remarkably expressive and ever-evolving, the wine reaches perfect balance after several hours, culminating in an extraordinary 50-second finish. A world-class stunner of remarkable depth and elegance.
