The inviting nose bursts with ripe raspberry, redcurrant and cherry plum fruit leather aromas with hints of violet and sweet spice. Fine tannins, a succulent depth of flavour and balanced acidity result in a wine that is extremely easy to drink and a wonderful food wine. An exciting wine to lie down too!
Appearance: The wine exhibits a deep ruby to garnet hue, indicative of its medium to full body and maturation in French oak barrels.
Aroma: The nose is inviting and complex, bursting with ripe red fruits such as raspberry, redcurrant, and cherry plum. These are complemented by notes of fruit leather, violet, and sweet spices like clove and vanilla. Subtle hints of licorice and baking spices add depth to the aromatic profile.
Palate: On the palate, the wine is medium to full-bodied with a silky texture. Flavors of ripe red berries are interwoven with fine tannins and balanced acidity, resulting in a succulent depth of flavor. The finish is long and smooth, making it both approachable now and suitable for cellaring.
Serving Temperature: 16 18 C
Decanting: While not essential, decanting for 30 60 minutes can help open up the wine's bouquet and soften the tannins, enhancing the overall tasting experience.
