Opaque black crimson colour with black purple hue – showing strong cling to the glass walls. On the nose aromas of vanilla, spice, liquorice allsorts and plum. The palate is tighter than the nose suggests with plum and spice flavours dominant followed by a very peppery back palate. Aftertaste of spice and stewed plum.
