Subtle spice and perfume aromas overlay the rich cherry and
blackberry fruit. A lovely “Italianate” dryness permeates the palate – along with
the ripe, succulent black cherries and berry fruit vibrance. That dryness comes
from sympathetic oak maturation but the tannins are well integrated, dry and
fine, contributing to the overall texture and mouthfeel of the wine. A spice-tinged
liquorice depth adds interest. Supple, balanced and a pleasing long aftertaste.
