CATA's notes

Cherry red well covered. Fine nose, aromatic, with pleasant memories of seasoned red fruit, sweet spices, balsamic notes and aromatic woods (cedar); Memories of pastry. Complex. In the mouth it is sweet and enveloping, tasty, alive and very well balanced. With silky step, kind and mature. Polished tannins and with a persistent finish rich in nuances.
