De Toren Fusion V 750ml

This is a stunning expression of a superb vintage as well as terroir. At first, the richness of the wine is experienced as quite dense blackberry and plum notes with cedar shavings. As the layers open, one gets to experience many depths of dark sour cherry, a spiciness of tobacco, and a hint of aniseed. The acidity is well balanced to extenuate the graphite aftertaste with a full-body, mouth-coating tannin structure while having an appetising sweetness to break the chalkiness.
