This is a voluptuous, silky wine with plenty of blackcurrant and mint. The palate is mouth-filling and flavoursome with soft, velvety tannins.

Wine Colour
Deep violet with a purple hue.

Wine Bouquet
Intense ripe cherry, with hints of cassis, blackcurrant and plum. Star anise, vanilla, cinnamon, clove and
cigar box characters enhance the complexity of the wine’s aroma.

Wine Palate
A generously mouth-filling and complex wine with intense ripe berry fruit characters. Hints of rhubarb
and licorice add to the wine’s charm. Subtle nutty, clove like characters complement the ample primary
fruit characters. The palate is long and rich, with a firm finish and long persistence.

Cellaring Notes
Produced to be ready for drinking now, but with care will improve for a further 2-5 years.
