This is a wine that has impeccably concentrated fruit, around which everything else revolves. A deep red in colour, the nose is saturated with dense dark berries and a suggestion of french oak in the background.
The fruit on the palate literally soaks up the oak, giving a concentrated and complex mouth feel that is complemented by generous spice and fine drying tannins.
The wine finishes with superb depth and drive of plum, dark cherry and blackberry,with the slightest touch of liquorice.
An exceptionally well made wine that will greatly reward time in the cellar.
