Dense purple core. Savoury aromatics with roasted meat and pepper/seared beef. Cured meat characters, salumi, roasted peppers and olive. Sweet cola/sarsaparilla. Black cardamom, turmeric, smoke paprika and fragrant Portuguese spices. A generous and bold palate. A fresh core of sweet fruit, black fig, black cherry and summer berry pudding. A suggestion of iced vanilla slice. Hints of bitter chinotto provide balance. Fine, chalky tannins create a lattice structure. The palate has a long, richly textured finish.
