A nose of red berries (blackberry, blackcurrant) and spice aromas. On the palate, the tannins are firm yet smooth. A long and elegant finish.

"This has savory notes of moss and herbs alongside black cherries, olives and smoke. It’s full-bodied with firm, ripe tannins. Plush and creamy with a moreish savory quality."
