Dense midnight black core with a deep dark red black tinged hue. Intense ripe blackcurrant, blackberry, liquorice and dark plum aromas stream out of the glass with vanillin cedar, earth and dried herb notes also evident. Rich, seamless and silky, the medium to full bodied palate is layered with blackcurrant, liquorice and blackberry fruits which meld into a plum, vanillin cedar, earth and spice back drop. Beautifully polished tannins finishing long and refined.
