Tasting Notes:
Deep ruby red colour. A full-bodied wine with intricate flavour combinations of blackberry, plums and mulberries, intertwined with vanilla oak, banana, dark
chocolate and cigar box notes. The wine is formed on juicy, but velvety tannin structures which create a balanced palate and a lingering finish.
