Deep red that is slightly lighter towards the rim, the nose has dark berry fruits and the slightest hint of menthol.

The palate has very good balance of savoury taninins,with oak adding some cedary coffee like characters, there is good depth of fruit with plum and violet melding well with the other elements on the palate.

The length on the finish is good, however the oak a little dominant.
