Impenetrable and dense, staining from core to rim. Blackberry and plum preserve, rope liquorice and bitter chocolate aromas fill the nose and mouth with an intensity that is profound. The weight coats every corner of the palate, but it remains in harmony right to the end. The tannins, whilst subtle, go to work in the background and carry it long and finish it dry. A truly astounding wine that demands serious contemplation with every mouthful
