Firm, somewhat smoky aroma of ripe yellow fruit with nutty and dried herbal aromas reminiscent of laurel and yellow-spicy aromas and a hint of root vegetables. Ripe, juicy, a hint of sweet yellow fruit, herbal and celery-like vegetable notes, quite present acidity, some grip of crumbly-sandy tannin, a hint of mushrooms, floral nuances, a little yellow spice, very good, slightly warm, juicy, spicy and herbal-vegetable finish with mineral notes.
