Great colour, concentration, and bouquet of dark cherry and plum, framed by dried herbs and the baking spices of clove and vanilla. There’s a wood smoke and soil quality that layers in complexity, adding plenty of charm. Fleshy, fruity, salivating, and dry on the palate. Flavours of dark plums and raspberry are the focus, with firm, polished tannins and a strong acid line providing length and freshness. Well made, with best drinking from 2026 through to 2032+.
