“Intense red, thick and deep with lightly garnet reflections. Mature, with notes of red berries as blackberry, raspberry and cherry, floral notes of violet and hints of tobacco and vanilla coming fromthe aging in wood. Soft and juicy with elegant and fine tannins, this wine shows excellent structure and body.”
The colour is mid red. The perfumed nose exhibits lifted redskin lollies, raspberry, wild strawberry fruit, with thyme and sweet spice notes. The juicy and fruit driven palate has raspberry fruit, orange blossom, ginger, mint and an earthy note. The old vines ensure weight and depth on the palate and the fleshy and supple tannins add to the mouthfeel of the wine with a mineral edge. The wine is balanced through the palate and the juicy berry flavours linger nicely.
