Vibrant translucent ruby red with bright see through tinges. A striking and intriguing colour. Redolent ripening cherries, and like a perfume made from ripening summer pudding fruits; raspberries, boysenberries, redcurrants and even a hint of mint and mossy forest floor but overall this wine redolent with ripening plums and black cherry smells and the merest hint of enticing cedar and spice.
An extraordinary range of aromatics like waves crashing on a beach. Initially intense sweet fruit of cherries, and ripe raspberries, plums and then some black cherries, but balanced by a tangy acidity, like summer pudding with some fresh cream and spice from the French Oak and an almost chalk like tannin structure. A real nod to Burgundy.
