Winemakers Comments

Dark ruby with a Morello cherry rim and expressing dark cherry, soft worn leather, cocoa bean, blackberries, clove, black peppercorn and charcoal, this wine is all about the finesse and sublime purity found in the fruit. The silk cherries and warm spiced red fruit in the end note remain crafted on the finish.
