Notes | "Dense black berry and cherry meld with integrated oak tones of anise and clove in this red that sees time in Slavonian oak. There's a real sense of energy come first sip, displaying loads of thick-skinned berries framed by soft oak spice. This is structured with broad yet well-knit tannins and a healthy vein of acidity, ending on lingering cherry skin and cocoa notes." (Wine Enthusiast) | |||
