Very deep purple colour with red tones lead to intense complex aromas of sweet spices, violets and plums. The palate delivers a richly flavoured and complex, dark cherry, plum and chocolate laden mid palate with chewy tannin and lingering anise & dark chocolate flavours on the finish. This wine shows impressive structure enabling this wine to age & really develop complexity.
