Deep dark red in colour, an array of aromas on the nose with violets, satsuma plum and flashes of vanillin oak that are all bound by notes of old leather.

Graphite, tightly bound plum , grainy tannins with background wood spice. The mouthfeel is exceptional with power and concentration of dark berried fruits yet an elegance and structure that keeps the wine in the medium bodied spectrum.

The wine finishes with violets, blackberry and drying tannins that coat the mouth. Impressive wine that will cellar for decades.
