Wine description | The nose is complex and beguiling, with notes of demi-glace and roasting pan juices, beneath scents of pipe tobacco, vanilla and pencil shavings oak - much more than just a simple varietal offering. The palate is full-bodied, refined and taut showing dark, black conserve fruit flavours.Liqueur chocolate and spice flavours are impregnated by overt, chewy and ripe tannins. |
