Nose
The nose reveals finesse and extremely pretty aromatics of blueberry, wild berry, blackberry, mocha, espresso and violet.
Palate
The mouthfeel has great focus, but in a very seductive style. Layered with creamy sweet exotic flavors, dark chocolate, sweet black cherry and flowers reminiscent of good acidity, this wine finishes with great length and sexy powerful tannins. The oak integration is spectacular, which is great sign for quality. The classic Roy Estate terroir truly expresses her voice as the wine opens and continues to evolve in the glass. The elegance of flavors melts into your palate with ripe fruit characters, earthy tones and freshness, followed by a pleasuring measure of finesse.
