Notes | |||
"Intense, purple-red in color, it is clear and shows very close tears. Intensely perfumed on the nose, with fruit aromas including blackberries, blackcurrants and cherries. On the palate, the alcohol sharpness is supported by soft tannins and well balanced acidity. Full flavored and with a long lasting persistence." —winemaker |
Critical Acclaim | |||
"Dark and toasty nose of dried cherries, truffles, dried earth, cloves, anise, charred bark and tobacco leaves. Full-bodied with firm, chewy tannins. Savory and compact with complex mushroom and spice notes on the lengthy, firm finish. Drink after 2023." —James Suckling |
