A real head-turner, this detailed and nuanced red opens with notes of Mexican spiced chocolate and creme de cassis before revealing a sleek yet rich core, which is built around pepper and graphite-laced berry, cassis and damson plum flavors that fan out around fresh acidity. Features taut but well-integrated tannins, crescendoing harmoniously with elements of molasses and cocoa. Cabernet Sauvignon, Carmenere, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot.
