On the palate

Blackcurrant, plum and cherry lead into a creamy, savoury edge on a generous, well-framed palate. Structured tannins give the wine shape, while the finish stays dry and grippy with good length. For drinkers who like Merlot with ripe dark fruit, savoury detail and more structure than softness.
