Deep dark ruby, opaque core, purple reflections, subtle watery rim. Wild dark berries, a hint of beeswax and nougat, candied orange zest, subtle wood spice, tobacco nuances, a hint of cassis in the background. Medium body, fine nuances of red currants, mineral and fresh, subtle hints of mint and lime, a little vegetal in a positive sense, remains animating and lively on the finish.
