Details

Vibrant, dark ruby in colour. This wine has aromas of chocolate coffee, raspberries and mulberries on the nose. This enticing flavour combination blends well with black cherries, black pepper, spicy oak and subtle tannins to fill the mouth with layers of pleasure. Well-integrated and velvety tannins compliment the fruit to give the wine a well-balanced mouth feel and lingering finish. This wine drinks exceptionally well now but will benefit from a year or two in a bottle.
