Nose: A subtle floral hint lifts a rich nose of fruitcake, blackberries, herb and peppery spice.
Palate: Ripe, soft-textured and juicy black fruit comes first, then vibrant nutmeg, pepper and cinnamon, followed by a creamy oak note. The oak is harmoniously knit with the fruit and fresh acid, with a rounded mouthfeel and a long, elegant, refined tail.
