Notes: Strong, alluring aroma’s of plum, blackberries and floral hints. The palate reveals layers of summer berries, ripe stone-fruit, aromatic nuances, dried apricot (yes, apricot!) and herbaceous tones, ultimately leading to a pleasant sustained dry finish. Highly recommended addition to your cellar, gold medal at the 2015 awards.
