Tasting Notes
Brilliant, rich ruby colour, with a fine shimmer. Presents itself with a rich nose, plenty of ripe cherry, some plum, followed by liquorice and sandalwood. Juicy and full on the palate, with lots of vivid fruit, especially cherry and fresh plum, building up with finely meshed tannins, unfolding beautifully, and it lingers for a long time.
