Darkest plum at the centre with a bright mulberry rim. An abundance of blackberry, blood plums and liquorice swell in the glass. The densely fruited bouquet opens up to yield mocha, cedar, vanilla bean and further layers of dark fruit, laced with dried thyme. Charged with liqueur cherries and dark chocolate, the full-bodied palate is both savoury and fruit rich. The tannin is boldly structured with cedary oak framing the layers of thick, plush velvety fruit. Truly classic in style.
