Tasting Notes

Deep ruby in colour. On the nose, intense aromas of dark fruit are married with spicy notes of pepper, cedar and tobacco box, menthol hints and a subtle slate-like minerality. Assertive yet elegant on the palate, with firm but velvety tannins and a vibrant acidity which carries the complex flavours onto the lingering and harmonious finish. A wine of great complexity, power and grace.
