Dense ruby red with youthful crimson tints. Full of ripe dark fruit, with plums, blackcurrant and black berries complexed with spice and dark chocolate over a light oak background.

A wet winter and mild summer with regular rainfall through the growing season allowed a gradual build up of ripe flavours to produce a rich wine with great fruit depth and balance. After fermentation on skins for seven to ten days using open and closed fermenters, this wine was subsequently aged for a period of 18 months in a mixture of new to three year old premium French and American barrels.

Cellar up to 2032. Enjoy now with a Moroccan spice rubbed fillet of beef or over time with slow braised beef or lamb.
