Bright dark ruby with a purple hue. Pure nose, layered with red and dark berries, mild spices like clove, vanilla, some new oak and creme de Cassis. The palate is lush and juicy with a dense structure, fine powdery tannins, cocoa bean, roasted flavours and notes of freshly crushed berries, good concentration without heaviness, very long, warm and lingering finish, well balanced with good juiciness and drinkability.
