Displaying complex aromas of raspberry, sour cherry and hints of forest floor. The palate is seamless and elegant with flavours of strawberry, dark cherry and rhubarb over layers of mushroom and truffle. The French oak barriques add ample but delicate tannins with a creamy palate delivering a generous and delightful length.
Superb on its own or enjoy as an outstanding accompaniment to a duck or game dish, alternatively stuffed wild mushroom and pumpkin pasta as a vegetarian option.
Medium to full ruby colour with the faintest purple traces, the bouquet shows sour cherry and a lift of dried balsamic herbs including mint. The palate is full and rounded, rich and ripe, with lovely balance and a splendid array of flavours. Long carry, appealing balance and harmony. Great value.24 JAN 2021 Drink 2021–2029
