Tasting Notes

A garnet-purple colour. A remarkable richness on the nose – intense aromas of blackberry, raspberry and blueberry, with hints of graphite, tobacco and cloves. A fine medium-bodied palate, with a strong core of fruit, elegant ripe tannins, a very blackberry perfumed finish. Outstanding wine that will age beautifully.
