BattelyOutrageously floral - lavender, violets, white flowers then roast meat, spices, dark cherry, blackberry liqueur, apricot, stalk and creamy French oak. On the palate medium to full bodied with a gorgeous silky texture. Cool (mentholated) flavours of dark cherry and bramble fruit, sweet roast meat, spices and attractive stalky characters. The tannins are slinky and ripe with acidity that adds freshness and leaves the palate refreshed and cleansed - ready for another big sip. Outstanding length. This is scented, balanced and a textural marvel. This is the real deal.
