Colour: Rich, attractive dark plum red. Nose: The nose shows lifted, aromatic, blackcurrant and raspberry fruits along with distinctly varietal cabernet and merlot characters of mint and tomato flesh. There are attractive, but not overpowering, background characters of savoury oak and spice. Palate: This medium bodied wine shows textbook cabernet characters of black olive and rich ripe dark fruits, with its more dominant tannin on the front palate and finish. The softer, sweet plum characters of Merlot fill the mid palate. This is a supple wine with succulent fruit throughout supported by savoury oak, which delicious now, when fresh and juicy, will repay medium term cellaring. |
