Tasting notes

Deep red colour with a lightly browning rim. Nose shows cherries, earth and wet stones. Some perfumed high notes. Quite intence with some air. Medium bodied in the mouth. Seems very mature. Some hints of cherries and anise. Again lots of wet stones, almost ash. Fine acidity and not much tannins in the back. A little bitterness in the finish.
