Tasting Notes
Quite dark in colour. The nose is heart cherry and fresh fruit, with fine notes of clove, ripe raspberry and a hint of strawberry cordial. There's also some wood spice and wood shavings on show. Good concentration and also freshness on the palate, which is concentrated and tightly woven but never too ponderous thanks to good internal tension and radiant fruit. Very grown-up.
