Wine Profile
Tasting Notes
Sit a while with the nose of this mature red wine and you will be rewarded with aromas of bitter chocolate, leather, black plums, cake spice, and cordial cherries. This slender red wine proves its might with flavors of fresh black peppercorns, cassis, balanced tannins, blackberry brambles, and just a hint of barrel toast.
