It has a terrific perfume of blackcurrants, spicy oak, leafy herbs, and chocolate. This carries to a full-bodied red that has beautiful purity, a focused mouthfeel, and ripe tannins.
...dusting of cocoa gives way to sage, ground cloves and crushed blackberries... Seamlessly silky and serene, it swirls across the palate with ripe red and black fruits as sweet tannins mount under an air of violet inner florals... finishing long and gently tannic.
...nose is laden with massively concentrated black and purple fruit framed with élevage-induced aromas of baking spice and cocoa powder...palate is opulent and powerful, braced with firm, structured tannins colored in with juicy, ripe fruit and herbal tinges on the finish.
...earthy and fruity red with blackberries, blackcurrants, dark plums... Medium- to full-bodied with fine, firm tannins. Structured and weighty, with a generous amount of ripe berries and fine tannins... Spicier towards the finish.
The ripe palate is packed with blackberry jam, pie crust and baking spice.
