Tasting Notes
Deep ruby, purple reflections, broad ochre rim. Delicate dark cherry fruit with tobacco and herbal spices, a hint of plums, nuances of liquorice and candied orange zest, slate touch. Juicy, fresh and elegant, finesse-rich structure, integrated tannins, subtle sweetness, light-footed on the finish, good length, ageing potential.
