Elegant and aristocratic kaleidoscope of aromas , an abundance of fruit flavours, blackberry, mulberry and blueberry with supporting complexity of mint , eucalypt, rhubarb, Turkish delight and cinnamon. The palate offers a rich tapestry of enjoyment and fulfilment of flavours of raspberry, strawberry and boysenberry to name a few.

Full bodied red wines have a noticeably textural mouthfeel with bold, complex flavours. Often deeply coloured.
Dry wines have no trace of sweetness at all.

Very deep, dark purple/red colour and a sweetly blackberry jammy aroma, lots of toasty oak and a touch of cherry-liqueur; the flavour sweetly super-ripe and almost essency, with ample soft tannins and a touch of chew. Very sweet and ripe palate, but gets away with it, because those fine powdery tannins ride in so nicely on the finish and aftertaste.
