Tasting Note
Deep, rich purple in the glass, almost opaque at the core. On the nose: ripe dark fruits such as black cherry and plum with smoky oak, leather, a touch of earthy undergrowth and some sweet spices like liquorice. On the palate it's full bodied, robust and quite structured, there’s generous dark fruit, balanced by savoury, mineral tones and firm tannins. The oak adds nuance but not sweetness, giving hints of vanilla and toast. Finish is long and slightly dry with lingering black fruit, spice and a subtle leathery note. A powerful wine that drinks well now (with decanting) and should develop further complexity with a few more years of bottle age.
