Colour
ruby-red
Bouquet
a beguiling nose of blackcurrant, mint, violet, cedar and sweet spices, and luscious yet refined flavours of sweet raspberry, cassis, sandalwood, cinnamon and blackberry reduction
Flavour
The oak tones are geared toward gingerbread, hazelnut, cigar, sandalwood and something like a grilled sweet red pepper. To the palate, it offers nice weight with no heavy glycerin, and a rinse of acidity that adds to the wine’s natural energy, brightness and viscosity.
