Showing fabulous upfront fruit notes of ripe blackcurrant and dark cherry with seductive nuances of toasted nut, dark spice and floral on the nose. The palate is equally delightful with succulent fruit intensity and rounded mouthfeel, displaying excellent fruit purity together with beautifully integrate tannins, making it very attractive. At its best: now to 2026.

A great all-rounder. This is the perfect bistro wine - suited to a wide range of dishes, and agreeable to all customers. Youthful, bright colour, generous ripe berries, balanced and interesting and finished with classy fine tannins.
