Tasting Notes
Dark ruby with purple reflections. Already approachable. There's a spicy undertone to the dark berry confit, delicate liquorice, cassis and herbal notes, along with orange zest and a touch of minerality. Complex and persistent, with taut tannins, ripe blackberry fruit, hints of nougat on the finish and good length. Good ageing potential.
