Rated 90
This wine is deep, concentrated with aromas of blackberry confiture, dark chocolate, orange zest, and dried herbs. The flavors on the palate are black currant compote, key lime cream, dried herbs intertwined with chocolate cream, salty toffee and a dry finish. Pair with Grilled Lamb Lollipops.
