The wine is medium ruby in colour. A warm nose of quite strong intensity; aromas of prune, black raisin, leather, raisin, cinnamon and cranberry coated in sugar. Powerful and full-bodied on the palate with strong astringent tannins, moderate acidity and warm alcohol; flavours of black rowan, leather, strong coffee and bitter chocolate in quite a lasting finish. Ready for drinking with a potential for ageing.
