The reserve release from Kirrihill, and it shows.

A nose that is perfectly ripe, yet has an impactful thread of bay leaf and green herb that sits alongside taut plum and blackberry with an aniseed edge. The wine is medium to full bodied and is set against a backdrop of flowing dark chocolate; fruit is punchy and precise, but everything is in the right place. The finish is long and dark fruits are dusted in spice and brambly earthen impact.
