Bright and energetic, with aromas of red florals, orange peel and blue fruits combined with dark woodsy spice and undergrowth. Chewy, sinewy tannins and smoky spice fill the mouth, together with flavours of violet and black cherry. With excellent drive and expansion, the palate is long, enveloping and firm, yet pretty. Expressing well now, this wine will gain greater complexity with time in the cellar.
