Tasting Notes from Celtic Whiskey Shop and Wines on the Green
Nose complex, red fruit such as strawberry, wild berriessome flowers but once is open tobacco, slate and balsamic aromas are coming with different fruit such as figs and plums; some hints of creamy caramel; ageing results in cinnamon and licorice.
Palate Sweet polished tannins, perfectly balanced with minerals and jammy fruity flavours. Smooth and lingering finish.
Colour Deep cherry red a little bit evolved because of the age.

Awards and/or Press Quotes
2005 Robert Parker 93 Points 'From relatively young vines planted in a challenging terroir yielding less than a tonne of fruit per acre. Dark ruby/ purple in colour, the wine gives off lovely aromas of cedar, cinnamon, kirsch, blueberry and liquorice. This is followed by a full-bodied wine with ripe, plummy, balsamic and blue fruit flavours of superb intensity, lots of depth, and a long pure finish'
