Santa Cruz Icon 2014

Description

Of intense ruby red colour and shiny coat, this is an important wine complexity. At first it is perceived balsamic, indicating the two years of barrel aging. Immediately, the wine opens with aromas of candied fruit, ripe black fruit (blackberry, cherry plum), floral notes (violet), leather, sweet specias, cedar, toast, mocha and coffee. Input greedy, it is a soft wine velvet, highlighting a rich natural acidity balanced with ripe tannins. The finish is long and persistent.
