Protea Reserve 2009

Alluring plum nutmeg spic with a touch of licorice and the faintest hint/ whiff of perfume - just a suggestion or a whisper.
Lovely plum spice and blueberry on the entry. Cinnamon too. Spicy vibrance on midpalate. Plush texture. Long fruited, spicy finish.
Juicy throughout with a twist of white pepper.
Structured but gentle - velvety.
