Tasting Notes
Deep dark ruby garnet with purple reflections, a black core and a touch of edge brightening. Ripe blackberries, some wood spice, pickled plums, orange zest and vanilla make for a heady bouquet. The palate is juicy and powerful, with well-integrated tannins wrapped around a core of redcurrant fruit and with some spiced notes and a touch of nougat on the finish, which lingers well.
