Sleek and seductive wine with tight-knit tannins and cassis, dark cherry, plum, and nutty oak flavours. A thoroughbred red with impressive density and serious cellaring potential. Approachable now but worth waiting longer.

Intense notes of ash, dried flowers, dried cherries, burnt lemons, espresso and dried spices. It’s structured and firm, with a medium body, tight-grained tannins and vibrant acidity. Tightly wound. From organically grown grapes.
