Intoxicating game aromas along with oak, brown sugar, Cheese, perfume, and black fruits. The meat aromas were something else that hypnotized you to keep smelling, like some sort of drug.
Flavours of game, dried herbs, oak, fig, black fruit, and red licorice. Soft tannins with medium plus acidity, it's juicy but the body keeps it in check, very well balanced. Fantastic value- tasted July 2023
Aromas of oak, and molasses and bay leaf. Nice grippy tannins. I enjoyed what I could best describe as a "cigar box flavor" on the finish (you will see what I mean).
Tasted August 2023
