Tasting Notes

Complex aromas which combine to give an intense, sophisticated wine. Ripe berry fruits, smoke, raisins and liquor. After aeration, cinnamon and jam notes surface. Full and rounded on the palate, with lovely tannins offset by the glycerine-like character, resulting in a pleasant and fleshy mouth feel. Long lasting and lingering. Delicious!
