Cavalotto

Maraschino cherries and tapenade give way to earthy herbal aromas with time in the glass. Nicely ripe tannins provide a platform for liquorice flavours and some floral notes to show on the palate. I found hints of the sweet succulence of dates and a lovely re-emergence of those cherries. The firm finish suggests fine pairings with beef or lamb any time over the next 5 years.
