Tasting Note

This blend displays dense red-black colour and magenta-tinged rim. The deep and subtle perfume of violets, cool graphite and layers of dark berry fruit has a captivating complexity. Créme de cassis, black liquorice and fresh juniper berry add to the alluring bouquet. Depth of flavour continues onto the palate, revealing multi-layered tannins, finely woven and gentle with delicious swelling intensity. Offering balance of verve, power, excellent length and persistence. The 2018 Series C requires time to express full concentration and promises enjoyment for decades to come.
