A very fresh and floral nose,
Light to mid weight, dried plum, fig, black cherry, black olive, soft and easy drinking, a slightly saline and gravel finish.
This seems to always be at the ready.

Dark purple. Nose of black/purple fruits with a bit of plum, baking spice and mineral. Medium plus body, a bit chunky in terms of alc balance. I think it needs a bit more time in the bottle. Disclaimer: I import this.

Jan 26th, 2016Still a deep purple. Reticent nose, more mineral than fruity. Firm, steely palate, with totally non sweet dried plum, black tea, and dark aromas. Not sure if it was this bottle of it's evolution, but this bottle tells me drink up on the 2019, if you have it.
