Totally opaque black dark red colour with a dark red black tinged hue. Fragrant blackberry and liquorice scents meld in to vanillin cedar, a faint earthy meatiness and blackpepper. Supple entry with good richness to the medium weighted palate featuring flavours of blackberry and liquorice over well integrated vanillin cedar, some meatiness and pepper. Slightly dryish finish with velvet like tannins. Concludes with an aftertaste of blackberries, liquorice, vanillin cedar, subtle dried meats and blackpepper.

Other Reviews…
Hand-picked, matured in French oak. Bright crimson-purple; a magical combination of intensity and finesse courtesy of an exceptionally long and finely structured palate, black cherry and spice Siamese twins, mouthwatering acidity another feature. Drink by 2039.
