Aromas of cherries, redcurrants, earth and roasted meat. Some dried flowers, too. It’s medium-bodied with fresh acidity. Juicy and fruity. Flavorful finish. Drink now. Screw cap.

Sam Kim 93/100 (NZ) 5 Stars – March 2021
Fabulously fruited and sweetly aromatic, the bouquet shows dark plum, ripe cherry, floral and subtle spice characters, leading to a beautifully rounded palate offering succulent fruit flavours together with fine texture and silky tannins, making it instantly appealing. At its best: now to 2025.
