Colour Vibrant ruby red.

Nose Fruits of redcurrant, plum and blackberry combine with complexing notes of tobacco leaf, cooking herbs and anise spice.

Palate Medium bodied, aromatic & flavoursome. Plush fruits of spiced plum and redcurrant jelly sweeten the front and mid-palates, whilst savoury herb nuances of thyme and bay combine with liquorice, ground coffee and dark chocolate spice to complex the finish. Silken tannins provide for form, structure and length.
