I like this. It’s a little tense and backward but has a fine perfume of dried mint, tea and potpourri, dark cherry and spice. It’s flavoursome and coated with brick dust tannin, carries a little warmth, but also succulence of deep red fruit and cherry. It rolls out very well as you give some air. The finish is authoritative and long.

This bottle is the standard 750ml. If you are looking for the Magnum 1.5L bottle, you can find it here.
