Description
Series C 2015 shows great depth of colour and an impressive red-black to the rim. An intriguing nose opens with generous layers of dark fruit, an attractive cassis and French lavender perfume. Finally notes of pencil shavings, cacao and cedar elevates the complexity of this blend. On the palate Series C shows poise, with silky and seamless integration of tannins, refreshing mid-palate acidity with rich fruit and caramelized woody flavours that have great length. This wine exemplifies both freshness and concentration of fruit with great potential to mature and evolve over the next decade or more.
Food Pairing
Series C will fit well now with intense flavoured red meat and game.
