Tasting Notes
Full cherry red, slightly lighter edges; some smoke on the nose, dark fruit, sloe and tobacco; gripping on the palate, red berries, firm acidity, slightly unripe tannins, goes perfectly with grilled meat.
More about the tastingPowerful and multi-layered bouquet with ripe black cherry, plum, dark chocolate, mocha and roasted aromas. On the palate, full-bodied substance combines with freshness and powerful tannins to create a rather rustic but unaffected unity. Sour cherry on the finish, a prudent accompaniment to food.
