Details
Dark ruby. Powerfull berry fruit with cigar box and dark chocolate followed by vanilla and oak spices. Full-bodied with appealing blackberry flavours followed by tobacco, chocolate, toast and vanilla and a good tannic structure adding complexity and long maturation potential.
Excellent on its own or served with simply- flavoured red meat, game and duck dishes.
