Written Notes

Ruby red colour with garnet hue. Classy nose with initially closed aroma. Opening up slowly displaying an aroma reminiscent of fresh mulberries, sweet elderberries, Morello cherries and dried figs, restrained spiciness and a touch of earthy minerality in the background. On the palate vey refined character, well balanced and structured with ripe fruit, mild spices, ripe tannins and balancing acidity, a wonderful wine with good length.
