"(made from 38-year-old vines and aged for 18 months in a combination of new and used French oak barriques): Deep ruby. A deeply perfumed bouquet evokes ripe redcurrant, cherry, pipe tobacco, smoky minerals and pungent herbs. Seamless and appealingly sweet, offering powerful red berry compote, rose pastille and bitter chocolate flavors that slowly take a darker turn in the glass. Finishes extremely long and smooth, with clinging sweetness, velvety tannins and an echo of candied flowers."
Product Description:
