Deep dark ruby with purple reflections and a slightly watery edge. A definite woody spice to the nose, alongside black forest berries and fresh orange zest. An inviting savouriness in the background, with tobacco notes. A powerful palate that majors on black berry fruit and hints of plum, with a core of fruit sweetness and vivis tannins. Some nougat and mineral characters on the finish which feels still quite closed - still miles away from a first drinking window. Will shine, and with great delicacy, in the future.
