Tasting from 03.09.2015
Dark ruby garnet with purple reflections and subtle rim brightening. Pure black berry fruit on the nose, with a touch of orange zest, sweet tobacco and some nougat. Juicy red berries and soft ripe plum on the palate, with a touch of cherry. The texture is chocolatey and sticks very well, whilst still feeling light on its feet. A touch of mocha in the finish, although only large barrels were used here.
