A superb red. Totally opaque, black purple colour with black purple hue. The nose delivers a superb sniff. Top notes of violet, followed by blackberry and vanilla.
The palate is generous, full bodied, with a strong black pepper back palate, followed by spice, liquorice, plum and blackberry. Fine grained, velvet smooth tannins, perfect balance. Very long aftertaste of liquorice, vanilla, blackberry and toasted oak.
