Tasting Notes
Dark ruby garnet, violet reflections. Fine eucalyptus, leafy spice, tobacco leaves and mint (i.e. Australia) on the nose. Rather brittle on the palate, rough tannins that do not yet fit into the overall picture, firm texture, good food companion, should be given some time to mature in the bottle.
