A deep ruby hue hints at the wines power and poise. Aromatically layered, it opens with a lift of florals and tart red berries, like cranberries and wild strawberries, before revealing undertones of black olive tapenade, cracked pepper, and aniseed. The palate is opulent yet precise, with plush dark fruit - think ripe plums and black cherries - balanced by a firm, tactile tannin grip. The structure is assertive but refined, tapering into a finish that reverberates with spice and seriously depth of fruit.
