Masculine, edgy and powerful with intriguing aromas of blackberry, dried herbs, dark chocolate, spice and ink. Grippy with firm tannin on the palate and concentrated flavours of spice, bing cherry, coffee bean, blackberry, old leather and a certain meatiness. Enjoy with steak au poivre or grilled lamb with rosemary.
