Tasting Notes
Rich, flint ruby colour. Dense and compact nose, opens with notes of tobacco, then some dark redcurrant and blackberry, cardamom in the background. Open and supple in the attack and on the palate, showing plenty of ripe berry fruit, opens with pithy, gripping tannins, savoury and firm on the finish.
