Aroma of sun-dried,
prune-like fruit and, to a lesser degree, a fragrance of oakiness.
Deep red colour which
shades from the dark hues of the bulb of the glass to brick red
around the edge.
Smooth sensations fill
the mouth, leaving behind a touch of caramel on the soft palate.
Smooth on the tip of the tongue and toasted underneath. |

On the nose, hints of fruit enveloped in a series of oak fragances
and balsamic aromas.
Red with a slight hint of yellow when still and
glints of violet hues when swirled.
In the mouth, a series of smooth sensations
moving towards the back of the palate, then returning along the
sides of the rear of the tongue with toasted flavours and finishing
underneath the tongue at the front with soft, persistent toasted
sensations. |
