Intense red colour with a scarlet rim. It has an abundance of black cherry, plum, black currant and raspberry aromas with a hint of spice and dried herbs. The palate is smooth on entry with good structure and weight on the middle palate. Good balance between fruit and oak with lingering cherry, dried cranberry and herbs on the finish.
