Tasting Note

A complex, beautifully balanced combination of fruit intensity, complexity of flavour and alluring finish. A wine of exceptional elegance and poise where texture is enhanced and massaged throughout this wine by the combination of fruit integrity, natural acidity and a well-crafted retention of residual sugar. This “off-dry” (RS:16 grams/ltr) style results in enhanced fragrance and aromatics, provides a tension and energy to the wine at the same time achieving presence and a salivating “morishness”.
