Dry wines have no trace of sweetness at all.

This is ripe and beautifully fragrant on the nose showing dark fruit characters with violet, mixed spice, thyme and roasted hazelnut notes. It’s succulent and supple on the palate, displaying lovely mid-palate weight and roundness together with fine, grainy tannins, finishing pleasingly dry. Approachable and fabulously drinkable. At its best: now to 2025.
