Deep garnet, ripe rich rose of strawberry fruits and cherries. Spice, earthy notes, beetroot and cedar oak round out the bouquet. Ripe juicy flavours flow across the palate with cherry and plum flavours, spice and a touch of beetroot and cedar oak. This is a wine to be enjoyed over the next 2 to 4 years.
