Aromas are a symphony of rich, ripe berries, violets, dried rose petals, dark cocoa, freshly roasted coffee beans and savoury vanilla, underpinned by notes of fine French oak.
The palate is elegant and structured, delivering rich complexity and intensity of flavour without being overtly big or heavy. Generous berry fruits, gothic plum and spices of cigar-box and cedar, chocolate, tapenade and liquorice. Refined oak tannins, exquisite balance and length complete the experience.
Decant to enjoy now, or cellar under suitable conditions to enjoy over the next 10 years, or more.
