Opaque black dark red colour with deep dark red hue. Lifted blackcurrant aromas are followed by some liquorice, mulberry and cedar notes. Generous and fleshy in texture the palate delivers a flavour profile of ripe blackcurrant and liquorice followed by some dark chocolate and black plum characters. Super fine grained velvet like tannins with aftertaste of dark plum, liquorice and spicy cedar.
