Tasting Notes
Dark ruby in colour with an opaque core, purple reflections, and subtle brightening on the rim. On the nose, aromas of delicate nougat and ripe plum, underlaid with blackberry fruit, a hint of tangerine zest and fine herbal spice. The freshly structured palate is lean with red cherry notes and fine fruit expression on the minerally finish. Already well developed and drinkable, recommend decanting for two hours, the wine also has the potential for further ageing.

Substantial, complex, dark berry fruit, fine nougat, ripe tannins, pleasantly fresh underlay, great length, it has sure future ageing potential. A wonderfully balanced wine.
