Tasting Notes
Dark ruby in colour with purple reflections and a subtle brightening on the rim. An attractive bouquet on the nose, with delicate aromas of leather, ripe dark wild berries, a hint of plum, nuances of orange zest and some mint. The juicy, elegant palate has ripe, mellow tannins, notes of black cherry, blackberry, and dark nougat, and a fresh, savoury, saline-mineral finish with a subtle astringency evident from the tannins.
