The wine is moderately dense ruby in colour, with lifted florals, soft white pepper and spices – allspice and sweet tobacco – along with lush black plums, red berries and even hints of fresh herbs on the nose. The structure of the wine is broad, close to velvet in texture with a fresh finish. It is quite mouth filling and elegant, initially hinting at white pepper, with red berries and a touch of sweet tobacco and an overarching minerality. As with all our reds there is no hurry to drink this if cellared correctly, the first two or three years usually showing considerable development. |
