This wine offers an inky black core and a sultry bouquet of licorice, cassis, sloe and Cuban cigar. It’s full and dense in feel, with tight tannins that are firmly drying, leaving the fresh acidity to play a secondary role. This drinks nicely now and has the focus to continue to evolve to benefit for a few years to come. Drink now–2024.
