As this wine is round and supple at the beginning, we don't feel the acidity. There is a medium length at the end.

Comments: This wine is a simple wine, easy to drink wine. If we plug the nose, we feel acidity which is hiding by the fruity smells.

In three words, this wine is supple, fruity and soft.
