Augustus MMXX

Purple red with a hint of violet colour. On the nose ripe notes of blueberries and blackberries combined with chocolate, vanilla and spices. Beautifully concentrated, with grippy yet round tannins and expressive notes of violets, black cherries and liquorice on the palate. Long and full finish, where the exciting complexity of the wine shines through. Augustus is a wine that can be drunk now, but will only show its full potential in the next 10 years.
