Tasting Note

On the nose, aromas of mixed berries (red berries and raspberries) dominate the fruit expression but with some darker blackberries and cherries present too, underpinned by warm spices, hints of pepper and dried herbs. The palate starts soft and textural with good fruit intensity and earthy complexity. The wine has great length, fine acidity and finishes with some chewy tannins.
