About this product
Garnet red with a purple hue. Lifted violets, vanillin and chocolate notes on the nose; full bodied palate, stewed plums, prunes & spice up front with savoury, earthy characters layered beneath, which persist through to the supple, fine velvety tannins and trace of black pepper on the finish.

Full bodied red wines have a noticeably textural mouthfeel with bold, complex flavours. Often deeply coloured.
Dry wines have no trace of sweetness at all.

Heaven forbid that anyone should try to pick up a dozen bottles of this wine, how can glass be so heavy? It is an allegory for the wine, yet it manages to carry the alcohol with its vibrant array of red and black fruits, anise and dark chocolate; the silky tannins are, I suspect, the answer.
