Medium body, crimson colour, with mauve edges. Aroma of spice, blackcurrant and liquorice – creating an impressive start. On the palate there is a trace of leafiness, but it is acceptable, followed by flavours of spice, blackcurrant and liquorice. The wine has good length, with fine grained tannins, followed by a liquorice, black current aftertaste. Cellar 2-3 years.
RATING: 89/100
