Tasting Notes
Dark ruby with purple reflections, brightening to a subtle ochre rim. Ripe plums are underlaid with candied orange zest, a hint of blackberry jam, delicate dried spices, and tobacco nuances. Juicy and powerful, with a delicate touch of cardamom, cherry compote, and ripe tannins. The finish is chocolaty, with a mineral touch and delicate tannins. It will benefit from bottle ageing.
