Deep dark colour, slightly fading rim, powerful dense deep nose, classic cedar and cassis, little ironstone and earthy maturity. Palate big and solid, slightly hard fruit and tannin, very young still not forgiving, not sure if hard tannins will soften before fruits drops, hard metallic aftertaste. Needs time.
Having worked with Ronan for over 10 years i have nothing but admiration for his drive and energy and the way he embraces new idea's to improve not only himself but the business' he works for. He is always entirely professional, generous with both his time and knowledge and a true showcase of leading by example. Ronan's knowledge of not only wine, but every aspect of the hospitality industry is impressive and he is always, it appears, a step ahead when embracing innovation to deliver a better result.
