Points : 8,5/10 Price : Around 90 TL A beautifully aromatic nose. This blend has strong aromas of dark fruits. Tannins are persistent but soft. It’s very well balanced. Flavours are rich and plentiful with blueberry, raspberry, chocolate and prune. The finish is long and savoury. One of my favourite reds this summer.
