Description
Colour: Light crimson red. Nose: A super-expressive, gorgeously fragrant nose with a rush of rosewater and floral notes, coupled with terrifically pure red fruit pastille laced with earthy graphite and dried herbal notes. Palate: The silken, supple quality of the fruit is immediately noticeable - matched by the delicate creamy texture and powdery and seamless tannins that are present but perfectly integrated. The fruit qualities build with incredible elegance and concentration, with red fruit flavours building until they release on a dry finish punctuated by chalky minerals, vibrant acidity, and pencil shavings infused with sage and tobacco leaf.
