Wine Rating
 
95
A dark yet glossy wine in the glass, the nose gives quality vanillin oak richness with brambly blackcurrant and plum a perfect accompaniment.

There is an attractive suppleness to the palate with dark fruits that are given a cedary lift that moves towards a mix of dark fruits intermingled with peppermint dark chocolate and savoury herbs to finish.

A complete wine that is worthy of seeking out.
