From first sniff, a very intriguing wine! Intensely perfumed. Pleasant developed bouquet with black pepper, blackberries, brambles, and a hint of vanilla bean. Balanced fruit on the palate with graphite accent on the finish. Delicious and dangerously drinkable. Excellent sensation, balance and shape for a wine at this price point.

My last bottle. The perfect heart warming wine to have during the black out with freezing temperature. Just great value for money. Peppery and savoury. A real treat for the money. Will be looking for other vintages.

Intense aromas of blueberry, raspberry, vanilla and hints of coffee. Medium-bodied and fruit forward with peppercorn leading to long, smooth finish. Quite well-balanced with refined tannins. Tasty!

Really quite impressive. Black pepper, smoky and dark fruit. Just like a Northern Rhone Croze with less acidity and more fruit finish. Soft tannin. Ready to enjoy now. Fantastic value.
