Red fruits, earth and spice set the tone — cherry compote, warm sand, plum, shortbread, camphor, violets and a sprinkling of white pepper. Classically elegant perfume providing moreish appeal. The palate is seductive and poised with lovely lift and glide before anchoring grainy tannins put up a frame around plum, red cherry, sand and other notes akin to the nose, with a lovely cranberry note attaching to the acidity through a long finish. Elegance and lift on display here. Silky and sexy.
