A very dry, very firm furry tannic red. Crimson colour with crimson mauve hue. Medium body. Aroma of black cherry, vanilla and liquorice allsorts. The palate starts off with a very short fruit profile to be almost immediately overtaken by very dry very firm furry tannins which completely overwhelm whatever fruit dares to surface.
