Lovely plum fruit aromatics with some white pepper and spice. Gentle soft front palate with medium acidity on a medium bodied framework. Predominantly pepper and spice but it also displays blackberry, black cherry, plum and Christmas cake. Some menthol and mint rounds out a complex flavour profile. Overall a wine that talks of place and a good representative of a cool climate red blend.

Ratings Key:
Outstanding (Score range 95-100)
Often an internationally recognised, leading brand or winery – but not always! Produces a classic wine that is a faultless representation of the style/variety. Complexity on the nose and a seamless palate are an example of the hallmarks of an outstanding wine.
Highly Recommended (Score range 92-94)
A quality focused wine that has plenty of style. Length of palate and intensity are often key characteristics of highly recommended wines. These producers could be the ones to watch in the future.
Recommended (Score range 89-91)
An above average well-made, reflection of the style/variety, which often represents good value for money.
