About

Rating:

91

Very deep, dark, red/purple colour. The bouquet is quite oaky, licoricey and very ripe, with almost desiccated fruit character and a peppery note. This is mirrored on the palate, which is coarse-grained and earthy, chewy, big and slightly clunky. It has undoubted concentration but no great pretence to elegance. 10 Jun 2020

Product Description:

Immediately engaging, you can feel the 130-year-old vines playing with your senses. Mellow aromas of mulberry, black cherry and potpourri gently enliven the nose. The depth and complexity of the aroma tell you all you need to know about the pedigree of this wine. While dark and brooding at heart, the palate is surprisingly lifted, with aged cherry liquor and bitter chocolate playing against each other. The mid-palate is generous yet understated, the structure delicate and complex. The quality of this wine means it will be a great drink at any age, but you would certainly be rewarded by giving it a bit of time in the cellar. - Winery
