The nose is rich and aromatic with concentrated plum, gentle spices and lifted vanillin oak.
The wine is a powerhouse on the palate with dark berry fruits and silky vanillin oak competing for dominance, it does gain subtlety and complexity over the mid palate with cinnamon like spice providing an excellent counterweight to the exuberant fruit and oak.
The finish has a savoury oak derived twist, much more restrained fruit and excellent length.
