Thursday, November 7, 2019 - Clear, deep ruby.
Clean medium (+) complex nose of blackberry, damson, stewed plum, apricot, licorice, black pepper, charred wood, and earth.
Dry, high acid, medium (+) ripe chalky tannins, with high alcohol, full bodied, pronounced flavour intensity of blackberry, stewed plum, licorice and white pepper with a medium (+) finish.
Very Good. This is a powerful and complex wine, with enjoyable primary, secondary and tertiary notes. The high alcohol level holds this back from an outstanding rating.
