Tariri Red 2018
Made up of Armenian Areni, French Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon grape varieties and aged in oak barrels, the concentration of this wine is revealed by the intense colour of ruby red. Tariri has a complex nose with a fruity aroma of blackberries, wild cherries and grapes with a touch of spicy, peppery notes. The palate is structured yet elegant, velvety yet persistent. Cabernet Sauvignon gives the wine blackcurrant notes, the Merlot gives it its smooth tannins and the Areni gives it its elegance. An impressive wine with a generous and lovely long-lasting aftertaste.
