Elegant and textural with a velvety core of juicy and crunchy berries on the mid-plate mingling with herbs and spices in harmony. Well-composed with a precise long finish. - James Suckling

A seductive, overt style, with ripe cherry and sappy red licorice at the forefront, backed by smoked apple wood and iron shavings.
