Made from 40 year-old vines, and aged for 15 months in French oak barrels - this is very deep in colour, with intense dark fruits. Quite serious in style, but also rugged and spicy with generous ripe blackberry notes. An alluring perfume adds freshness whilst the palate has layers and layers of flavour a touch of sweet, spicy oak and a very moreish character. Big, rich and powerful, but very well balanced, and hugely drinkable.
