Lots of blackcurrant, milk chocolate, star anise and a touch of mint on the nose, followed by some complex vanillan oak aromas. The palate is well weighted and softening, but still packing a punch on the front and middle. Fruit first with blackcurrant, plums and ground pepper, with some drying oak and tannin characters. Structurally sound, decent balance, great fruit weight though maybe a touch hot on the finish.
