Tasting Notes
Deep dark ruby, opaque core, purple reflections, very soft brightening on the rim. Delicately spicy underlay of wild black berries, dark cherries, fine nougat touch and overall still somewhat restrained aroma. Substantial, fine fruit expression, silky tannins, mineral and persistent, fine structure, good, vintage-typical freshness, balanced, chocolaty nuances on the finish, certain ageing potential.
