Tasting Notes

This dark cherry wine shows purple glints. On the nose, it is complex, with outstanding ripe black fruit aromas backed by oaky vanilla and toast from its ageing in new oak barrels. Fresh fruit flavours follow the nose to round it out. It is round, complete and powerful on the palate, with good backbone. Oak is present as a spicy note, with hints of compote coming through.
