TASTING NOTES: An attractive, dense red with a garnet tint.
The nose opens on fragrant, juicy, fresh fruit notes. With airing, subtle spice and chocolate aromas bring a certain succulence.
After a fresh and well-structured attack, refined, silky tannin emerge on the full and dense mid-pate, while crushed blackcurrant, cocoa and liquorice flavours give the wine excellent aromatic length.
The flavours linger on the remarkably long, harmonious and balanced finish.
