The aging for 22 months in French barriques, plus 3 months in steel and 12 months in bottle, completes a rich and harmonious profile, oriented towards significant evolution over time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTasting notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the glass, it presents a dark and intense garnet color.
