Complex nose starting with cedar oak but laced with redcurrants, red cherries, dried herbs and even white pepper. Lovely textured palate with fine velvet tannins. More fruit driven on the palate showing red cherries and strawberries. Well balanced acid and alcohol producing a smooth integrated long finish.

Rating: Highly Recommended

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.
