Closure: Cork
Deep crimson colour with crimson hue. The nose is appealing with lifted notes of truffle, mulberry and spice followed by a hint of cherry. The palate, however, is light and a touch dilute. Spicy mulberry flavours are evident, but there is little depth. Fine dryish tannins. Subtle spicy mulberry aftertaste.
