TASTING NOTES (August 2023)
Intense blood-red hues, with fragrant notes of dark fruits, blackberries, cassis and bouquet garni, supported by subtle whiffs of graphite and bell peppers. Delectably rich and concentrated fruit spectrum, intersecting with flavours of baked cherry tart, mulberries, mocha and sweet oak spices. A bold tannin structure and fresh acidity act as the perfect foil to balance the wood and fruit components. Powerful, yet fresh and velvety, with hints of black olive paste on the long, dry finish.
