VISUAL STAGE: A wine dressed in a beautiful, medium-high intensity, dark-cherry red with a brick rim.

OLFACTORY STAGE: Direct olfaction discloses well-assembled spicy aromas of vanilla and coconut against a background of stewed fruit and jam. Honest and powerful. Retro-olfaction evinces its aromatic potency, length and complexity.

GUSTATIVE STAGE: This is a wide, rounded wine with a voluptuous attack. Full bodied, with a powerful, meaty mouthfeel, quality tannins that contribute character and structure and a well-integrated acidity. The final sensation is long and pleasurable.
