Written Notes

  • 91p
Deep colour. Fresh musky plum dark chocolate aromas with slight confectionary notes. Fresh bouyant dark chocolate oaky dry flavours, with plush ripe tannins and excellent mineral length. Rich and chocolaty wine with plenty of substance and vinosity. 93 points
  • 93p
Dark purple red with violet hue and black core. Opulent nose with rich aroma reminiscent of blackberries, black cherries, vanilla, gingerbread spices and elegant toasted oak. On the palate well balanced with velvety tannins, excellent length and complexity.
