Cabernet Sauvignon reserva is serious, mature wine of ruby red colour, on the surface of which the beautiful brown brick nuances reflect. Aromas of blackcurrants and cherries in combination with oak bark and gentle cedar wood are nicely combined with the smoke notes of meat and tobacco. The taste is fairly dry, of fresh acidity and a rich structure in which the mineral flavours of soil and fragrance of incenses are revealed. There is a reasonable amount of ripe tannins presented, together with the rich aftertaste.
