Tasting Notes
Deep dark ruby garnet colour with purple reflections, subtle brightening on the rim. Ripe dark berry confit, a hint of sweet plums, fresh orange zest, fine nougat touch, some caramel, multi-faceted bouquet. Powerful, pronounced in fruit, ripe cherries, vivid tannins, chocolate touch also on the finish, somewhat flinty aftertaste, already accessible, mineral on the finish, will benefit from further bottle ageing, great ageing potential. Already accessible, but better to wait.
