This is an opaque jet-shot garnet in colour.Initially this presents a savoury, meaty nose with notes of leather, exotic spices and fine minerality. Autumnal fruit compote emerges seductively, macerated dates and prunes to the fore.This is echoed on the palate, where warm fruitcake is lifted by fennel notes and liquorice. This is a rich and powerful wine, which bears its weight with style and elegance.
