Deep purplish ruby, homogeneous till edges, and highly extracted. Aromas of very ripe cassis and blueberry, some cool mint, and a hint of vanilla. Tannins soft but still providing some bite, and high alcohol, with ripe blackberry and cassis flavours, as well as vanilla, cinnamon, butter, fruit cake, and a bit of leafiness. Fair finish, which I believe the persistence is attributed to the fruit ripeness
