Oxidised wine. Spends one year in demijohns in the sun, and then goes to large old oak casks.
Nose: Great subtlety here, very gentle, black berries, cherry liquor, dried figs
Palate: very gentle and delicate, very very soft tannins, very subtle and coalesced aromas, almost seem not alcoholic; interesting aftertaste of cherries with cane sugar and caramel.

Rich, complex, gratifying. Big butterscotch and caramel with citrus notes. Tasty as F* IMO. — 9 years ago

Hot iron, iodine, olive tapenade, beef, creosote, curing salt, pink peppercorn, talcum, garrigue, scorched earth, granite, black raspberry liquor, grapefruit, crushed cherry, creme de cassis, rose petals. Ripe, full of flesh with sinew to back it up, found the balance quite remarkable here. The sun and warmth is felt in the generosity, but the tannins and acidity are well within reason. Granite and iron still at its core. — 3 years ago
