Notes | |||
"Intense ruby red color but with excellent transparency. The nose reveals a classic bouquet of cherries and prunes that open to more sophisticated notes of slate. Complex on the palate, a touch of tartness is accompanied by balanced tannins. Vibrant, succulent body. Exciting finish with a richness of flavor and returning hints of ripe fruit." —winemaker |
Critical Acclaim | |||
"A fresh red with aromas of raspberries, redcurrants, baking spices and orange peel. Medium-bodied with sleek tannins. Creamy texture with bright acidity and a fruity, zesty and flavorful finish with excellent length. From organically grown grapes. Drink now." —James Suckling |
