Tasting Note: Bright carmine red colour with topaz hues; wonderful varietal expression on the nose with rich red and black fruits with a mineral and herbal component typical of the Naoki vineyard; impeccably smooth on the palate with svelte tannins and a noticeable freshness with a fine spine of acidity here cutting through the rich core of powerful fruit. Expressive and complex.
