Tasting Notes
Dark ruby garnet with purple reflections and a broad ochre rim. Ripe heart cherries, some leather and nougat, a hint of vanilla and candied orange zest on the nose. The palate is juicy and elegant with a core of sweet fresh fruit supported by ripe tannins. Length and minerality on show, with a fine chocolate touch on the finish. It's accessible and full of certain ageing potential, a definite price-performance winner.
