The dense and deep colour is as expected, likewise the powerful full-bodied palate, overflowing with sultry blackberry fruit backed by a cornucopia of licorice, dark chocolate and spice seasoning; given the power of the wine, the tannins are not at all aggressive. A fulfilling 25th release of this iconic wine.
Intense bouquet of concentrated blackcurrant fruit intermingled with characteristic raisin and cigar box notes. Mouth filling palate of rich, lush blackcurrant wrapped in fine dark chocolate. The palate goes on and on, all the way to a gentle tannin finish and some lingering cedar oak.
