The nose boasts bold aromas of blackberries and blueberries with an underlying darker side of leather, mocha, and a hint of cedar.
An opulent style with powerful but finely knit tannins that follow into flavours of licorice, black cherry, cedar and berries. Extremely concentrated with great purity, intensity and balance. The long finish ends with a blast of sweet black fruit. The wine will only improve with age.
