Displaying an opaque black crimson colour with a deep dark crimson red hue the wine was aged for 12 months in small oak barrels. Nosing reveals scents of dark cherries overlaid by some leather and cedar with spice and earth end notes. Light to medium weight and quite elegant the palate is filled with savoury dark cherry flavours followed by some dusty cedar, earthiness and spice. Dryish finish with soft very fine grained beautifully integrated tannins. Medium to long dark cherry, earthy cedar and spice aftertaste.
Drink over the next 3-4 years.
