Bin D673. The HRB series focuses on regional blending, yet nothing specified on the label for this. Dark garnet hue; the flurry of dark fruit from blackberries to very ripe plums and spiced compote take in oak flavours of cedar and wood, licorice and soy sauce along the way. Full-bodied, fleshy and ripe with still-firm tannins and a savoury core.
