Details
A wine with billowing aromas of wild berry, organic, meaty and spicy flavours. Vanilla and cinnamon are accompanied by attractive whiffs of leather, black olives and fine oak. The rich and complex palate rewards with a velvety and intense body with balanced tannins and a lingering aftertaste. This wine is well structured and has great ageing potential.
Superb with roast lamb and mint sauce, well-cured ham, spicy chicken and red meat.
Due to bottle aging these wines may show sediment and will benefit from decanting.
