This outstanding expression of Areni Noir grapes combines elegance and eloquence. Subtle, yet powerful tannins, expressed acidity and long finish create an exceptional balance and complexity. Elegant fruity bouquet with the typical scents of ripe black fruits are accompanied by the oaky notes of chocolate, caramel and vanilla
