Dark fruity nose with aromas of dried plum, stewed berries and dried figs, plus coconut, vanilla and a hint of cinnamon. Quite full-bodied on the palate, with ripe acidity and velvety tannins. Long finish.

Ruby in colour with the first signs of maturity. On the nose, aromas of dark fruit, dried plum, some dried fig, plus intense but fine barrel spice, some coconut, vanilla and cinnamon. Rather full-bodied and rich on the palate, with ripe, well-integrated acidity and rather incisive, somewhat persistent tannins and a long finish redolent of cocoa and fruit notes.
