““Aromas red berries, spices and a hint of florals, lovely mid-weight palate redolent with juicy flavours and a hint of savouriness on the way to the long lingering fine finish- VERY CLASSY””
“A 72/22/6% blend, open-fermented, matured for 16 months in 10yo French barriques. Exceptional colour, which turns out to accurately drop the starter’s flag on a deliciously juicy palate trimmed by savoury tannins to simultaneously provide balance, texture and structure.”
