Tasting Notes
Dark ruby with purple reflections and a slightly lighter rim. The bouquet is multi-faceted, with a discreet herbal savouriness, black cherry, a hint of blackberry, some cardamom, orange zest and a deep minerality. In the mouth it is complex and fruity, with ripe tannins, tight structure and a salty minerality, then fine cherry fruit on the finish. Definite ageing potential.
