A clean, bright wine in excellent condition. It has a spicy berry fruit lift to the nose and a juicy fresh red currant palate with very firm tannins. Plenty of life left in it yet.

An old fashioned style with very appealing berry nose that has a cherry lift and nice minty notes. Rich dark fruit flavours layered with raisined notes and subtle use of oak. Powdery tannins.

A complete wine! Earthy on the nose with blackcurrant elements. More of the blackcurrant characters on the slightly angular palate; very flavoursome with herbal hints.
