Violets & black raspberry on the nose. Moderately strong if sweet tannins throughout, esp upfront. The violets and raspberry carry over upfront. The violets drop out as the finish kicks in, with the raspberry (and tannins) carrying on to a remarkably long finish.

- Brick color with fast forming legs and aromas of raisin and tobacco. It's balanced and has flavours of blackberry, black currant and black pepper with a medium/full body. Leathery texture with a long finish.
