April 19, 2024 - Decanted for 1 1/2 hours, served in a Riedel Old World Syrah Glass. Opaque ruby colour.
Nose: Dark cherries, bramble and hints of elder berry come through towards the beginning. Dried savoury herbs, notes of meat, earth and coffee appear afterwards. On the way out, aromas of shaved dark chocolate and menthol make themselves known.
Palate: Cherry, cranberry and red currant on the palate, slowly morphing into notes of savoury herbs, dark chocolate and cured meat. Powerful tannins and fresh acidity. Dark cherry, savoury herbs, earthy notes and dark chocolate on the finish.
