  • Spice & Herb: Lifted five-spice, liquorice, and black cloves.

  • Body & Texture: Medium-to-full-bodied with a round, smooth, and fragrant mouthfeel.
  • Structure: Tight, sandy tannins provide great architecture alongside a bright, refreshing line of acidity.
  • Finish: Long, warming, and persistent, closing on pressed purple floral nuances and lingering oak spice.
