Firm and vigorous structure now with an excellent concentrated mid-palate, where the tannins that cover the mouth adhere to the inside of the cheeks, persistently. Flavors of blackcurrant and blackcurrant leaves supported by fennel, fresh tobacco leaves wrapped in the vanilla undertones of dark chocolate and vanilla from oak barrels.
