This wine is medium purple in colour. It has a fruity, spicy, mineral and floral nose of pronounced intensity, and gives a very positive first impression, with aromas of blackberry, blueberry, blackcurrant, sour cherry, cherry, black pepper, cloves, nutmeg, wet soil and cedar. This approaching full-bodied wine is very well balanced with restrained alcohol, fresh acidity and ripe tannins. Ready for drinking with potential for ageing (3-5 years).
