Brilliant colour, with a beautiful, dark red hue. The maturity is evident from the outset, with fleshy red berry aromas, particularly black cherry and blackcurrant. They are followed by some subtle animal notes, hints of forest floor and a dash of violet. The gentle extraction process has yielded a well-balanced and concentrated wine, with velvety smooth tannins.
The palate is full-bodied and indulgent, with splashes of chocolate and Morello cherry. The aftertaste reveals nuances of pepper and liquorice. Great length of flavour, silky and delicious throughout.

These are truly magnificent wines, powerful and wonderfully complex.
