Any lighter in colour and it would be confused for a rose, the nose has a sweetness of stem with cranberry and capsicum.

The palate is a mirror image of the nose with a brightness of fruit, and the weave of capsicum giving a suppleness to the wine that is pulled back into line by framing acidity. I think ‘smashable’ is probably one of the best words to describe what is an incredibly enjoyable wine. This will be well and truly best in it’s youth.
