Winemaker's Comments
Seductive bouquet showing complexity and a depth of perfumed violets and floral notes, layers of dark luscious cherries alluring exotic spices wrapping around a savoury earthy heart in classic Block B style. A beautiful, elegant and silky entrance of fresh dark cherries, a seam of exotic spices entwined with physical tannins, and a layered powerful core of forest floor notes of leather and fine of toasted oak.
