Tasting Notes
Deep crimson garnet with purple reflections and a broad ochre rim. Nuances of fresh figs and liquorice, black berry fruit, juniper and savoury tobacco notes all mix on the nose. The palate has medium complexity, with a red berry core supported by integrated tannins and a salty-limestone touch on the finish. Will benefit from bottle ageing.
