The wine typically presents a deep ruby color with potentially some garnet hints, depending on its aging. Expect a complex bouquet with aromas of ripe dark fruits like blackberry and black cherry, along with notes of dried herbs, spice, and possibly a hint of minerality or graphite due to the region's unique soil. On the palate, it usually offers a full-bodied experience with rich, concentrated flavors of black fruit, well-integrated tannins, and a balanced acidity. The oak influence might present as hints of vanilla, cocoa, or toast, contributing to its complexity.
