Leafy black cherries, licorice, espresso, and dried flowers come through in the nose while the medium-bodied palate is round, soft, polished, and fruity, leaving you with a luscious display of creamy, polished, dark red pit fruits. Drink from 2023-2040.

Oak, smoke, cherries, licorice and incense permeate the nose, while the medium-bodied palate kicks in with its soft, fresh display of plums, kirsch, espresso and licorice. Forward, polished and close to ready to drink on release, give it 2-4 years and it should be even better. 90-92

Broader rim Quite open nose – spicy, graphite and diluted minerals, with a very ripe blue fruit bass note and a plump core.
The palate shows some density and flesh, dark cherry flavours, good ripeness and ample freshness. Elegant and long, with fragrant dark fruits, some oak spice and great texture. Fine tannins, with good intensity, and a less dry finish than Teyssier.
