It is packed with an abundance of wild red and black berry fruits, evoking images of sun-drenched forests and ripe, succulent harvests. These vibrant fruit notes are expertly interwoven with the warm embrace of toasted brown cooking spices, a subtle hint of nutmeg and cinnamon, adding depth and complexity.

This vibrant fruit core is gracefully complemented by the nuanced bitterness of lightly roasted coffee beans, a sophisticated touch that adds intrigue and balance. Just a hint of sweet baking spice, perhaps a whisper of vanilla or clove, adds a comforting warmth to the initial impression. As the wine evolves on the palate, a distinct streak of fine acidity brightens the mid-palate, cutting through the richness and providing a refreshing lift. This acidity blends seamlessly with an elegant structure of fine powdery tannins, which caress the tongue and contribute to a smooth, lingering sensation. Together, these elements work in harmony to elevate the palate, guiding it towards a satisfying and remarkably elegant finish that leaves a lasting impression of balance and finesse.
