It’s a hedonistic, luscious wine but with age it’s a whole lot more than that. It can look monolithic and mono-dimensional as a young wine but as a mature wine it is neither. It becomes layered, complex, entrancing.

Deep, dark, dense colour with a black-ish tinge. The bouquet is restrained and quietly complex, interest-packed, while the palate is rich and concentrated, intense and penetrating, with layers of black fruit and espresso coffee, chocolate and toffee flavours all nicely integrated. A big, solid, powerful wine that serves up all the things that we expect in a top Armagh.
