Here is my previous note: Extremely deep intense purple colour. Spicy, cooked plum and sweet prune nose with some vanilla stick notes. Dry, full bodied, extracty, prune and mocha chocolate flavours with a lingering very crisp finish. CSPC 79095

TASTING NOTE: An opulent nose of blackberry compote, dark-jet licorice, vanilla, mocha and spice box, but also some lighter violets. Full body, some lovely acidity that really makes this wine and, in addition to the firm tannin backbone, carries it through to the chewy finish. Drink in 2020.
