Tasting Notes
Rich, partially opaque ruby with purple glints. Opens with lightly smoky notes including some flint and notes of tar, then lots of dark currants with a subtle herbal savouriness. Blooms wonderfully on the palate, from juicy, vivid fruit - lots of currant and blackberry - then dense, finely meshed tannin, entwined with sweet fruit texture. Very long and persistent.
