Totally opaque black dark red in appearance with a dark red hue. Pronounced ripe red to black currant and mulberry aromas are interwoven with black olive, cedary tobacco characters and spicy dried herbs. Medium bodied the palate is blessed with rich red and black currant fruit as well as mulberry which have a generous feel over a back drop of cedary tobacco characters, dried herbs, faint black olive and traces of spicy bay leaf. Beautifully refined tannins provide the framework. Long spicy red to black currant, mulberry, cedary tobacco character and dried herb aftertaste.

Other Reviews….
Batch picked and fermented, matured for 12 months in new and used French barriques before blending. Bright crimson; a luscious medium-bodied style oozing with blackcurrant/cassis fruit. A celebration of the union between fruit and region. Value+. Drink by 2029.
