The bouquet is rich with inky cassis, redcurrant, maraschino cherry, tobacco leaves and deep fried sage. Subtle mocha and a sweetness from the vanillin oak complement the fruit aromas.Full bodied with assertive, brick dust tannins. The dense palate is dark and brooding with blackberry, blueberries and couverture. Oak integration is seamless. There is a sense of both elegance and power; the flavours deepen and spread across the palate, freshened with balanced acidity, building to a tight and fine pure cabernet finish.
