Tasting Notes
Brilliant, intense ruby with garnet glints. Appealing, open nose with pronounced notes of ripe blackberry, some cassis, underpinned by subtly savoury aromas, exciting. Powerful on the palate, spreads with persistence, ripe dark berry fruit, opens with pithy, dense tannin, fine texture, lots of tobacco on the finish.
