WINE STYLE
A serious wine showing a deep ruby colour with classic elegance in fruit expression. Dark berry and forest fruit aromas combine with a subtle oak character which lends a smoky spiciness to the well integrated palate. This is further complemented by smooth tannins which add complexity, lingering to a velvety finish. It has texture, poise, elegance and layers of complexity which will continue to unveil and evolve, as its flavour ages gracefully to peak 2­3 years maturation and then more.
