Ripe, slightly rasined-bretty aromatics, full, thick, heavy palate. Bitter flavours dominate, hard tannins dry out...

This style of wine is made for the express purpose of drinking with food. The nose suggests pretty rose and violet notes up front followed by a complex array of dark cherry fruit, wild herbs, exotic spices, oak and earth. It’s medium-full-bodied and dry on the palate with plum, coffee and herbs wound around fresh, dark cherry acidity. There is great structure and balance with a solid tannic frame and a long, complex and fleshy finish. Drink with tomato-based dishes, game, grilled steak, braised beef or medium-strong cheeses
