Totally opaque black dark red colour with a bright dark red hue. The nose exhibits scents of ripe red currants and mulberry over light dried herbs and spicy cedar. The medium bodied palate carries plenty of rich blackcurrant and mulberry fruit with subtle dried herb infusions, spicy cedar and faint bay leaf the undercard. Fine grained, slightly dryish but elegant tannins. Aftertaste of blackcurrant, mulberries, subtle cedary tobacco characters, dried herbs and spice.

Other Reviews….
According to winemaker Mark Messenger 'we aim for a bright fruit-driven style that is juicy and structured'. The mission has been completed in fine style but that said, he's underselling things a tad. This is perfectly balanced and fruited, and drinks well now as a result, but there's a seriousness to the finish that will ensure it performs beautifully over the medium term, if not longer. Terrific value. Drink by 2028.
