Tasting Notes
Dark, fragrant and spectacularly rich … with layers of blackberry, plum and dark chocolate. Ultimately opens to reveal a more nuanced bouquet of violets and cassis combined with layers of tea leaf, tobacco, star anise and spice box. Beautifully proportioned, it reveals concentrated fruit and sensational structure [with] nicely integrated fresh acids and high tannins to reward patience.

Expert Reviews
Gutsy yet rich and polished, with well-built blackberry, toasty vanilla and spice flavors that persist toward big but refined tannins.
