Tasting Note:February 05, 2017

Deep and dark ruby red. Tons of layers on the nose; burnt rubber, leather, tobacco, dark cocoa, dark and black fruits and even a bit floral. Heavy tannins (8.5/10) and full bodied. Thick and definitely needs some time. Black raspberries on the attack, a little anise, cinnamon, dark cocoa and a little savory undertone. Long and lingering finish with tons of structure.


Aged for 22 months in 100% new French oak.
