Note di degustazione
Meaty and stinky, with a curiously pungent character to the nose, which is suspect is residual reduction giving a slight drainage edge. Very fine tannin, medium body and great intensity on the finish. There’s loads of black fruit on the persistence – this is very impressive overall, with the proviso that the funky element might detract for some. (RH)

Deep ruby. Powerful aromas of blackberry, candied violet and woodsmoke, plus a hint of olive that emerges with aeration. Sweet, densely packed and seamless in texture, offering juicy black and blue fruit and licorice flavors given lift and spine by a core of juicy acidity. Spreads out and becomes spicier on the long, sweet finish, which features subtle tannins and a sexy floral nuance.
