Plum and berry with some smoky bark undertones. It’s medium-bodied with delicious fruit and a crunchy finish. Drink now

Aromas of ripe plum, camphor and oak-driven spice waft out of the glass. The full-bodied palate features fleshy black cherry, licorice and vanilla alongside close-grained tannins.
