A wine that exudes class, it has concentration and presence whilst cutting an elegant and moreish figure.
The nose has a lovely mix of plum and dark cherry fruit that is intertwined with floral baking spice. The palate is medium to full bodied with an enjoyable tension between deeply satisfying dark berry fruits, a flowing line of acidity and tannins that give a savoury dimension. The finish is a heady mix of plum and oak induced spice with impressive length afforded by the combination of tannin and acid. Decades of development ahead.
