A good quaffer. Bright crimson colour with crimson hue. Medium body. Aroma of stewed fruit, spice and plum followed by a hint of earth. The palate structure is straightforward, with flavours of stewed fruit, spice, chocolate and mocca. Soft tannins. Aftertaste of spice and inky plum with a hint of cinnamon.

Totally opaque black purple colour. The nose is impressive and displays lifted notes of inky liquorice, vanilla and blackpepper. On the palate, pronounced flavours of blackberry over an inky back palate followed by vanilla. Fine grained tannins, followed by an inky plum and liquorice aftertaste.
