Crimson in appearance with purple hues this wine shows exceptional varietal character and longevity. Expressive aromas reminiscent of ground black pepper, black cherries and liquorice are complimented by the complex spicy notes of nutmeg and cinnamon derived from the use of new French and American oak barrels. The full-bodied palate is rich, ripe and concentrated with expressive layers of blackberry, black cherry, integrated oak and a complex tannin structure.
