| Opaque black dark red colour with very deep black dark red hue. The nose is dominated by aromas of very ripe blackcurrant followed by some cedar and spice. Full bodied with rich, fully ripened blackcurrant flavours followed by some dark chocolate, plum and spice. The palate displays good fruit concentration but not a great deal of complexity. Fine grained soft tannins with aftertaste of blackcurrant and spice. |
