A blackish deep garnet colour spreads from the rim to the centre. Intense and opulent aromas of cassis, blackberry, cedar, graphite, iron, black olives, toastiness from oak, mocha, and coffee integrated in a complex but seamless manner. The attack on the palate is firm with rich and complex fruit flavours, sturdy acidity, ample but refined tannins all in harmony across the palate. Expect this full-bodied wine to age for a long time.
