Deep rich red with hints of garnet, this wine exudes aromas of dried leaf, cassis, and licorice. On the palate dried herbal notes, plum, cassis, earth and licorice combine for an interesting complex play of flavours. Tannins are subtle, soft and balanced with the wine’s fruitiness. On the finish, herbal and anise notes contribute to lingering flavours.
