Bright garnet in colour, with a warm aromatic bouquet of currant and black cherry fruit, mingling with smoky oak, pipe tobacco, sweet spice (clove and cinnamon stick), and a touch of coffee bean. A medium to full-bodied red wine with soft drying tannins, and flavours of juicy red and black fruits complemented by notes of sweet spice. Lovely notes of tangy dark berries, black tea, sweet spice, and oak linger on the extra-dry finish.
