An emphasized dry and very extracted wine. The fruit is dark and deep, nearly leathery, in tune with some serious aroma sensations, while the tannins are tiny and build up only after a long time with the bottle. Good acids, somewhat salty like the sea, as a fresh shell and wind on a salty face. Even slightly animal in the nose. This Crljenak is packaged in Amphora and is perfect gift for business partners and friends.
