RATINGS

91Vinous / IWC

Intensely perfumed bouquet of blackberry, cherry compote, vanilla bean and incense, with an alluring spicy overtone. Pliant, open-knit dark fruit flavors stain the palate, with complicating notes of clove and mocha and supple tannins adding structure. Finishes with an echo of sweet dark fruits and impressive lingering spiciness.
