Inky dark purple core and hue. Good purity and intensity, mild oak in the background, aniseed and liquorice with fresh dark berries, cassis, violet and wild herbs. The palate is ample and concentrated with fine proportions, sweet fruit flavours restrained by a vibrant acidity, ripe but youthful tannin, a bold spiciness some meaty notes and a long muscular finish. Still youthful but with great potential.
