Deep ruby in colour with a medium+ intense nose.
This wine is smooth, fully flavoured & delicious
Positives: This complex wine features cedar, cherry, prunes, black and red currants, raspberry, dark chocolate, blueberry, fig, Christmas cake, woodsmoke and tomato leaf. Full body with medium tannins, good acidity, a long length and the alcohol is well integrated considering it’s 14.6%
Negatives: None
Interesting Point: The lack of tannins makes this wine optimal drinking experience now and not for cellaring.
Drink now or in the next 3 years on its own or and pair it with grilled cheese sandwich.
