Tasting Notes :
Powerful and intricate with lavish black fruits and earthy undertones with an abundance of pepper and five spice, heightened with perfumes of red and blue florals. The palate is elegant and poised, yet commanding. Deeply layered with inky black and red fruits, dark chocolate, anise, pepper, spices and fragrant violet perfumes. Full bodied with an earthy richness that cradles new oak complexity, underpinned by supple tannins. Continually evolving as time passes, effortlessly flowing with purity and definition.
