Clear very deep crimson. Luscious aromas of cassis, treacle toffee and sweet Amaretto-like oak, with some earthiness from the Merlot. Ripe red berry fruit and brandy chocolate on the palate is supported by high acidity and noticeable tannins, but the flavours are mature, so drink this year. Terrific with a beefy, cheesy meat pie.
