Tasting Notes
This has a complex aroma, with milk chocolate, some oak character, but also raisin, almost a hint of nutmeg, and then herbal savoury notes. On the palate it is classically built, substantial, dense, firm, but also juicy and finely nerved with a discreet minerality in the background. It is a lovely style, gastronomic and full of potential.
