Cloaked in imperial purple, this great Burgundy is allied with a captivating rhythm and a magical voice.

Powerful and intense with an olfactory richness around the ripe, red fruit (cherry, raspberry) and sweet spices (vanilla, licorice), it was united with finesse to the original and sensual instrumentation with the treble notes which exalt our senses.

The silky, tannic frame completes the balance and harmony of this rare wine, where the elegance and grace with captivating musical fluidity of a delicate orchestration.
It’s a very high quality, velvety pinot noir.
