An inky blackness to the glass with purple hues, with the slightest browning off from the bottle age . First flavours of savoury edge and a definite liquorice sweetness come through, with the ripe fruit tricky to define. Plum, and blackcurrant definitely, but also a floral rose and a citrus tang arrive as well. The musky tannins and luscious French oak (2 years in barrel) give a solid depth and structure to this complex Bordeaux style wine. A mellow and well-rounded finish.
