Written Notes

Deep ruby colour with slightly garnet hue. Aromatic nose with fine fruit, black cherries, Morello cherries, ripe plums, blackberries and strawberries, discreet spiciness and hints of gingerbread. Rosemary and hints of aromatic herbs in the background. On the palate well balanced with juicy character, ripe fruit, mild tannins, freshness and elegance, a very appealing palate with good length.
