Tasting Notes
Deep dark ruby, with purple reflections. Deep colour at the core, subtly brighter at the rim. Fine herbal savouriness, black sweet cherry, liquorice, orange zest and tobacco nuances - mineral and multi-layered. Complex, taut, tightly woven and lively, enormously mineral with ripe tannins and a salty-fresh finish, origin-related. A great wine with good ageing potential, the complete antithesis to the conventional wine from Chile.
