Written Notes

WINERY TASTING NOTES: Colour: An attractive, lively menium-deep cherry redo colour displaying a clean, bright rim with a blue tinge. Nose: Very expressive with well defined fruit character in which fresh red berry fruits, such as cherry, redcurrant and touches of mulberry, come to the fore. The wine shows a youthful, lively, carefree personality but at the same time is complex and serious with slight mineral notes showing through. The oak is almost totally integrated in the fruit. It gives a subtle sensation of unctuousness against a background of spicy and floral hints. Palate: Very fruity, with the same red berry fruit sensations found on the nose. Medium-bodied with no hollow on the mid-palate, which is the hallmark of this winery. Very fine tannins and a silky texture. Very fresh, lively and flavoursome. The fruit flavours come through over the oak. Rich and very long with masses of intense flavours. A mouthful of lovely fresh fruit.
