Sample
The wine comes with some formidable packaging, complete with a pristine cork. A dark red in colour with a nose of ripe, concentrated plum and significant oak impact.
The oak dominates the wine with a charred and drying aspect that overwhelms the fruit at this point, when you look hard there is medium to full bodied red and black fruits but the coffee grinds and cedar spice is the lingering influence. Has the potential to soften with a few years in bottle.
