Tasting Notes

TASTING NOTES

Pour yourself a glass

Aroma

A complex array of dense plum and berry fruits with more lifted notes of fragrant spice, sandalwood, cedar, dried lavender and violet like floral aromas are complimented by savoury, earthy and dark chocolate undertones derived from barrel maturation and an approach to winemaking that emphasises complexity over simple fruit.

Palate

On the palate the wine is rich and powerful, with a backbone of fine, ripe tannins bringing linearity and structure and a clean, dry finish. A serious, multidimensional wine.
