Nose

On the nose the wine is quite lifted with primary fruit aromas of plums, red currants and cherry. In the background there are peppery and earthy notes, as well as marzipan and a clove-like spice. Some oak is present, giving some toasty and pencil shavings characters.

Palate

This provides a palate with attractive front and mid-palate fruits of red currant and marzipan, medium to full body and good acidity. The texture is rich and there is length of flavour too. On the finish, the tannins provide shape and structure with firmness but no bitterness. Overall, the wine has good depth and balance, reminiscent.
