TASTING NOTES: Perfumed aromatics drift from the glass with cassis, red fruits and incense meet undertones of wet forest floor. Exotic brown spices compose the background elements of the bouquet. Moderate and appealing tannin profile create a sweet and mouth-coating texture. In part to the tannins and acid, this wine will age beautifully over the next 10 years.
