Winemakers Comments
This wine has an intense dark ripe red dark fruit, graphite, alluring aromas of raspberry, a subtle herbaceousness, nuances of blueberry and thyme backed with hints of cedar wood and pencil shavings. Soft, voluptuous integrated tannins with a rich creamy cassis freshness. Silky smooth mid palate with a finish which is full of dark fruit and long lingering flavours.
