Wine Notes

Jet-plum, with a tight, bright, fuchsia rim, this presents a rather decadent display of heady black berries, cassis and caramelised dark fruit with more unusual hints of apricot, liberally spiced. Mineral rich, there is a real sense of direction throughout, precise and focused. The palate reflects the aromatic complexity of the nose, delivered by stealth, orchestral in its emotive force, rising to a protracted, mocha-rich, purposeful denouement, a lovely wine, warranting a little patience.
