This sweet Pinot Noir which is harvested late is intense deep red colour with violet hues. Complex aromas of plums and ripe cherries and violets. It is enhanced by the presence of dry fruits and mint hints. A wine of great concentration and complexity showing sweet and voluminous tannins. This wine is a brilliant match with cheese.
