Tasting Notes
Deeply coloured dark crimson with a subtle ochre rim. On the nose, aromas of candied orange zest, dark berry fruit with a delicate herbal underlay, nuances of liquorice and blackberry confit, subtle nougat caramel and a touch of tobacco. The palate is juicy and elegant, with a harmonious texture and round, supporting tannins, with ripe cherry fruit and a subtle chocolatey-mineral finish, perfectly ready to drink, versatile.
