Premium Vintages Selection 2008-2009-2010
Deep brown in color with pronounced aromas of baked apricots, raisins, dried figs and dates over a layer of forest floor, brown sugar, crème brulee, bitter chocolate, caramelized oranges and butterscotch. Luscious and full bodied on the palate this reveals a backbone of crisp acidity. The lingering finish reveals notes of walnut, molasses and baking spice.
