Nose

Aromas of dried currants and licorice, floral notes
of an English Garden: a medley of lavender, sage, thyme
and a hint of violets. Youthful berry fruit lies beneath the
more outward floral expression.

Palate

On the palate, the wine
is at once firm yet supple and sensual. It is brimming
with flavors of wild berries, cassis, and pomegranate,
followed by savory notes of mocha, vanillin, and round
chewy tannins. Sandalwood and Indian spice aromatics
linger in the finish.
