Appearance

Deep crimson.

Bouquet

Highly perfumed with meaty, spicy red fruit aromas leading to pepper and whole bunch stemmy notes.

Palate

Medium bodied, with savoury red and dark fruit characters, leading to firm but fine tannins and well integrated oak. Silken texture, with good ripeness, balance and a long finish.

Conclusion

Highly enjoyable now, but will improve over the next 7 to 10 years.
