WINE VIB Very Important Bottle
VARIETY 50% Merlot | 50% Cabernet Sauvignon
VINTAGE 2020
TASTING NOTE
Deep, juicy dark fruit underpinned with delicate nougat notes and dark chocolate, a hint of tobacco and vanilla. Dark forest berries, ripe cherries, nuances of plums.
Wonderfully concentrated with a fine acid structure.
Extremely multi-layered, powerful and complex. Ripe tannins on the palate and an enormous length in the finish. Tightly woven with an extract-sweet structure. Ripe tannins, sweet nougat in the finish - will only benefit from bottle aging. A wine for the next decades.
