The nose is concentrated and complex, with succulent blackberry, cassis and plum fruit alongside notes of cedar, mineral and spice. The palate is medium bodied with a seam of ripe yet grippy tannin neatly woven into the wine's juicy, blackcurrant fruit, all complemented by hints of cigar box and tar. The tannins taper and soften on the finish, carrying overtones of mint-cherry, clove and cinnamon.
