Attractive, elegant wine offering raspberry and cherry colis notes framed by supple vanilla bean and leafy herb and an easy-going finish.  

   

It exhibits sweet mulberry and cedary notes intertwined with hints of tobacco leaf, licorice and earth as well as a thickness, no doubt from the Merlot. It should offer enjoyable drinking for a decade or more.

Medium-bodied with firm tannins, fleshy with layers of warm plum, cassis and cherry preserve flavours gliding through, backed by smoldering bay and singed alder notes that give steadying grip through the finish.
