Anthonij Rupert - Optima 2020 (750ml) Devin

Anthonij Rupert - Optima 2020 (750ml) DevinOptima 2020 Complex bouquet of fruitcake, cedar, cocoa and a perfumed whiff of dried lavender. Broad, fleshy and succulent with all of that the nose promises being delivered on the palate. Spice sprinkled cedar with rich dark fruitcake flavour. Wonderfully soft, rounded and silky palate that shows cohesion and refinement. Impressive density and concentration that doesnt overwhelm. Nor does the oak used in the maturation of this impressive blend.
