Bouquet:
A lifted nose with ripe, concentrated blackberry and fruitcake aromas, hints of chocolate, black pepper and spice, seasoned with a sprinkling of nicely integrated sweet vanillin oak.
Palate:
Full bodied yet soft, the palate shows ripe black fruits layered subtly with carefully handled stylish oak, supported by silky textured fruit tannins and balanced acidity, concluding with a long, savoury finish.
