| Near opaque dark crimson red colour with dark crimson mauve hue. The nose displays aromas of dark cherry, dark plum and spice followed by a hint of earth as an end note. Full bodied with flavours of black cherry and dark plum followed by some spicy earth like characters. Very fine grained well integrated tannin structure with aftertaste of dark cherry, plum and spice. |
