Another magnificent example of The Factor!

Produced from small parcels of fruit from old dry grown vines and matured separately in both new and old French oak barriques. Totally opaque black purple colour with paint like cling to the glass. Top note of violet, followed by confectionary, spice, vanilla and ripe plum, delivering a superb sniff. Explosive palate – flavours of plum, vanilla, spice and black pepper create a concentrate which is enhanced by dark plum and confectionary back palate flavours. Fine grained tannins, with just a hint of pencil shavings making an unexpected flavour appearance. Exceptionally long aftertaste, lasting minutes.
