Tasting Notes
Dark, impenetrable colour. Intense aromas of dark berries, blackberries, elderberries, nuances of ethereal herbs, a pronounced wood savouriness and a touch of graphite. Expansive and full-bodied on the palate, beautifully balanced, with noticeable, ripe tannin, lots of dark fruit again, chocolaty nuances and a long, lingering finish. Will mature further for a long time.

Expansive and full-bodied on the palate, beautifully balanced by a tasty, ripe tannin, shows chocolatey nuances and again lots of dark fruit. Lingers for a long time. Will benefit from more bottle ageing, for many years.
