Vivid, deep expressive aromas of fresh cherry, vanilla, oak and spice, intense ripe fruit and notes of oak. Juicy and vibrant in the mouth, with a suggestion of pleasant leafiness, backed up by deep, intense Morello cherry jam and black liquorice. Starting big, rich and ripe, it gains finesse to a beautifully balanced, sustained finish. It presents a massive, sense-filling, velvety, flavoursome impression that makes it hard to resist now; even though it has the concentration, structure and balance for extended cellaring.
