Bright raspberry nose with some minty herbgs, liquorice and a touch of baking spice. Medium bodied palate with a gentle grip of velvety tannins and bright acidity. Some perfume character, liquorice and wood towards the more astringent and closed finish. Maybe give it some years (or a longer decant) to open up. Nice.

Rich dark purple. Lovely floral aroma and soft flavours of violets, prunes, spices, licorice. Soft tannins but could still continue to develop for a few years yet. Easy to drink. Very good value.
