Tasting Notes
Black forest berry jam, sweetly underpinned with fine wood savouriness. Plum, blackberries and licorice, along with candied orange zest, cardamom and nougat. The palate is -powerful with a fruity-sweet core of ripe, vivd cherries, and supporting tannins. Savoury nuances on the lengthy finish as well as a mineral touch and chocolate-plum echoes. Accessible, with great ageing potential.
