Complete description
Vintage Description:
Great purity and intensity, aromas of cassis, black fruit, tobacco, violet with fine and discreet oak notes underneath. The palate is rich and unctuous with fine proportions, good intensity of fine tannin adding lift and freshness, digest dark fruit with cassis, cherry, sage and mint flavours, perfectly integrated wood and a very long and lingering finish.
