Tasting Note

2013 is a vintage of great substance for Series C. The wine exhibits an incredible deep red-black colour. Captivating mineral notes are present with blackcurrant preserve, liquorice, espresso roast and wet pebbles distinguishing the complex aromas and bouquet. On the palate series c shows great focus, a very well balanced tannin structure and beautiful density of flavour contributing to an expected and extended cellaring potential for this wine
