A dense and opaque, almost black colour with a very attractive glint. The nose, patrician, refined, complex and expressive, mingles black fruit with aromas of blackcurrent and crushed blackberry, opening with airing to display more complex notes of cigar box and spice. The attack is sumptuously full and substantial. The tannins are mature and crisp, enveloped in a beautiful body, dense and firm, that reveals chocolate and vanilla flavours. On the palate, the eine rdisplays an irrerpressable panache that leads into an utterely lovely, fresh, intense and mineral finish.
