Excellent colour with hues of red and purple, plenty of polish, leading to a bouquet of fresh cherries and strawberries with highlights of raspberry and rose. A lighter oak touch allows the scents of site and place to shine through, with aromas of loam, sand, and mineralised clay. On the palate, this is a delicious wine with a satin touch, featuring flavours of red berries and earthy spice. Tannins and acidity frame the palate nicely, offering a needle-point mouthfeel and freshness. Youthful, with a purity of varietal fruit and texture, it is lengthy and well made. A wine to be enjoyed from today, or at its best from 2028 through 2034+.
