Nose: "Red fruit and wild strawberry, noble tannins and saffron, pastry and almond."
Palate: "The palate is powerful and voluminous, with an attack that is distinct and clear. It unfolds with initial aromas of luscious red fruit, strawberry and Morello cherry. Next to arrive are dense notes of noble tannins; their velvety, silky caress is the perfect counterpoint to Vintage Rosé 2012's spicy saffron and peppery notes."
