Another of the Stable Hill range that is true to form in terms of the label, evocative and odd are two words that come to mind !

The wine is a youthful dark red to purple in colour with a nose that is a cool climate rendition of the variety with peppery plum and savoury blackberry aromatics. The palate is drying with taut acidity and has a pronounced earthiness, In terms of fruit tightly coiled blackberry and plum show what they can but need some time to come into their own.

Will reward a few years in the bottle.
