Product information "The High Road Director's Reserve 2019"
The High Road Director's Reserve presents itself with an expressive bouquet of powerful plum aromas, blackcurrants and mineral hints of graphite. On the multi-layered and softly textured palate, delicious nuances of cassis, dried tea leaves, fragrant cigar box and milk chocolate fan out, accompanied by subtle hints of anise and nutmeg, finishing with a grippy tannic framework in a long-lasting and immensely smooth finish. A masterful and highly prized world-class Bordeaux style cuvée!
