Deep purple black.
The nose combines an opulent and seductive fruitiness with an intricate kaleidoscope of complex multidimensional aroma. Pungent resiny scents of eucalyptus and rock rose, notes of lychee and passion fruit combine with exotic hints of leather, musk and cedar.
The palate is round and velvety and the dense but well integrated tannins are wrapped in a cloak of succulent berry fruit flavour.
The jammy fruit carries through into the finish where it is lifted by an attractive crispness and pungency.
