Dark and smoky, with bacony toast, cedar, mesquite grilled beef and chestnut notes leading the way for a core of solid currant and plum fruit. Shows some brawn, along with a gamy hint, on the rich, dark fruit-filled finish...
Deep, fresh, highly complex nose combines raspberry, meat, iron and pepper Huge, lush, smooth and deep; length and grip. Very dense but utterly seamless, with wonderfully restrained sweetness.
