TASTING NOTES
Nose of great aromatic intensity where tropical fruits, smoke and a carcass side pass the buck.
Despite its 39 years, there is still a lot of freshness and pep in the mouth.
Ripe and creamy tropical fruits delicately line the entire mouth, with a slightly acidic tension brought by the harlequin candy, where notes of nuts and toasted almonds sneak in at times. Everything arises like velvet on notes that are both gourmet and subtly toasted, with finely roasted retros accompanied by a very delicate green olive.
