Complete description

Vintage Description:

The wine opens with aromas of red plums, red cherries, and raspberries, cocoa powder, tea, and violets. On the palate, it is earthy, with notes of tobacco and dried red and black fruits, which blend well with herbs, robust spices, and elegant tannins. All leading to a fresh acidity that brings the finish to life. (Jeff Porter - Wine Enthusiast, 1st Sep 2023)
