Tasting Notes
Deep dark ruby garnet, opaque core, purple reflections, brightening to the rim. Lightly savoury background of black forest berries, tobacco nuances, hints of blueberry confit and elderberries, slatey mineral notes. Powerful, substantial, vivid sweetness, supporting tannins, dark nougat on the finish, very good length, an imperious style, built for a long life.
