Tasting Notes
A wonderfully pure scent of cassis is joined by graphite and sea breeze on the nose. The palate brings an immediate sense of freshness and structure, of toned richness and density. The tannins are firm and have lovely crunch, but seem to crumble into velvet. There is fine freshness and infinitely more of that lovely, scented, pure blackcurrant fruit. The finish is mouth-watering and has a hint of cocoa. AK
