TASTING NOTE
The aroma of this wine intertwines with rich blackberry, deep black licorice, and damp soil, accompanied by subtle graphite notes. The wine is full-bodied and rich, with a silky smooth texture that's delicate and finely nuanced, resulting in a lingering finish. It showcases an awe-inspiring sense of layer and depth, highlighting the wine's unique character. The velvety mouthfeel is captivating, akin to a smoothly gliding fabric on the palate, providing a pleasurable sensation.
