Viticulture & Vinfication Notes: Barrel aged for 18 months in new and twice used French oak (Nevers).

Tasting Notes: Deep, dark garnet color for this full bodied wine.
Aromas of black cherries, sweet black plum compote, cassis, liquorice, melted black chocolate and sweet spices yield to top notes of vanilla, coffee and cinnamon stick. Whiffs of cedarwood hint at established oak pedigree. Rounded tannins and crisp acidity uplift fruit within sensuous and silky mouth filling palate. Initial intensity of flavours include orchard cherries, spiced black currants and Dutch black liquorice finessed by mid-palate nuances of pencil shavings and seared meat with trailing notes of cedar smoke, ground black pepper and cloves.
