Description
"A gorgeous juicy fruit attack on the nose, showing lifted aromas of blackcurrant and cranberry with subtle roasted nut, olive and dark spice notes. The palate is concentrated and expansive with excellent depth and richness, superbly framed by firm tannins. Sturdy and bold. At its best: now to 2022" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Feb 2018
