Description
Dark red with a ruby hue. Subtle but incredibly complex fragrance with blueberry, a hint of blackcurrant fruit, floral violet notes and a subtle twiggy, Australian bush quality. Light antique and mocha oak nuances complement the dark fruit. Succulent yet fine with raspberry pip flavor and a hint of blackcurrant, leading to an abundance of fine grained tannin which stretch long and relaxed. A berry coulis tang with floral and earthy lines run through the length of the palate before a dry fragrant finish of exceptional poise and persistence.
Food Pairing
Braised lamb shanks, grilled steaks, and roast prime rib.
