A light to medium red in with great clarity in the glass, the nose shows generous spicy oak inputs with blackberry and background herb notes. The palate is juicy and driven by a taut line of acidity that will see this wine age for a very long time under screw cap, in fact it probably needs even more years to soften. In terms of fruit, dusty plum and blackberry shine through, the tannins are firm but fine and give a distinct dryness to the vanillin oak dominant finish.
