🍷 Appearance

• Deep, opaque black-red / purple-black colour in the glass, signalling concentrated fruit and depth.

👃 Aroma (Nose)

• Dark berry fruits such as blackberry and black plum form the core aromatic profile.

• Liquorice and subtle earthiness add savoury depth.

• Toasty vanillin oak, cedar and spice notes — pepper and dried herbs — bring complexity from French oak maturation.

👅 Palate (Taste)

• Rich, ripe black fruit flavours dominate — blackberries, dark plum and liquorice.

• Toasty oak elements (vanillin cedar, subtle toasty spice) weave with earthy pepper and fennel-like savoury hints.

• Medium- to full-bodied with good richness and a chewy, textured palate.

• Fine-grained tannins provide structure, leading to a fleshy mid-length finish.

🍷 Structure & Style

• Body: Medium to full

• Sweetness: Dry

• Balance: Fruit intensity supported by oak and spice, giving both depth and drinkability.

🍽 Pairing Suggestions

Pairs beautifully with hearty, flavour-forward dishes such as:

• Grilled or roasted meats (beef, lamb)

• Slow-cooked brisket or barbecued ribs

• Rich stews or mature cheeses — the bold fruit and spice match well with robust savoury profiles.
