Tasting Notes: Beautifully concentrated, ripe baked blackcurrant and plum fruit, cedar wood notes overlaid with spice and minerality. Very distinctive, smooth and round with good concentration of dark berry fruits. Great length and good tannins

Notes: It is recommended to decant before serving. Can be enjoyed now or cellared, it should mature beautifully.
