Tasting Notes
Rich ruby with a slight garnet rim. Intense nose, opens with notes of cassis, ripe blackberries and some black truffle, subtle vanilla notes in the background. Grippy tannins in the attack and on the palate, showing fine savoury notes, pithy, firm drive in the finish. Bottle ageing has done it good.
