Aromas of plums and dark berries, violets and toasty wood baking spices of clove and baked vanilla. Richly scented, varietal and enticing. On the palate - ripe, fruity, varietal and loaded with flavours of darks and baking spices, toasty vanilla wood and violets. Youthful with plenty of tannin and acidity to match. A wine that needs time to develop and relax. Decant for service or wait till 2022 then enjoy through 2030. Needs time.
