Deep red/purple in colour. The nose is lifted and aromatic showing red and black currants, red cherry, raspberry, and bay leaf complemented by oak derived cedar, vanilla and spice notes. The palate is medium-bodied and supple, juicy yet firmly textured. Mulberries, black currants and spice, with tobacco and olive savoury complexity, seamless oak and very fine tannins. Grilled lamb chops in Bordelaise sauce would be a fine match.
