Tasting Notes
Dark ruby garnet with an opaque core, purple reflections and a touch of edge brightening. Fine woody spice on the nose with some caramel, a hint of dried plums, meadow herbs and fresh orange zest. Juicy and elegant on the palate, with fine structure. Blackberry nuances emerge as well as some chocolate on the finish which lingers well and ends on a figgy aftertaste. Certain ageing potential.
