The nose opens on ripe blackberry fruit aromas, joined on airing by notes of roasted coffee beans and black pepper. From a highly expressive attack on the black fruit found on the nose, the peppery notes that emerged with airing return on a midpalate which combines power with heft. The finish lingers on an intense array of black fruit, spice, and roasted coffee bean flavors.
Some black beans, olives and fennel spice to the blackcurrants. Juicy, medium- to full-bodied, with a fleshy mid-palate, fine-grained tannins and a fresh finish. Pretty fruit in the finish.
Compact and savory, this version slowly reveals dusky rose petal and mineral accents built on a structured core of black cherry and plum. Finishes with precise tannins and nice length. Best after 2026.
