Tasting Notes
Dark ruby with purple reflections, subtly lighter at the rim. Distinct toasty aromas, with dark nougat, candied orange zest and delicate blackberry confit. Juicy, touches of red berry, pronounced, savoury tannins and a touch of chocolate on the finish. Still a little aloof, seems a bit over-extracted at the moment and therefore slightly bitter on the finish. Will need some time to develop out of this.

Powerful and energetic, fine dark fruit, perfectly ripe tannins, fresh and persistent, shows a wonderful balance, secure length, very good future ageing potential.
