Tasting Notes
Dark ruby garnet with purple reflections and subtle rim brightening. Some noble woody spice on the nose, as well as fine nougat, black forest berry fruit, candied orange zest and sweet tobacco nuances. Medium bodied on the palate, showing ripe heart cherries and a fruit-led sweetness with just a hint of dried fruit. It's already developed and a versatile food companion, but the price is difficult to justify.
