La Pirámide delivers aromas of black stone fruits and spicy notes of black pepper and cloves.

Nicasia quarter 2, provides red forest fruits, freshness and elegance.

Adrianna's block 3 presents intense floral aromas reminiscent of violet and lavender, while block 9 of this vineyard provides a deep, dark violet color, aroma of ripe black fruits, mineral notes and a long finish on the palate.
