  Mid-red. Very expressive, clear nose. Vibrant fruit. Grenache to the fore with red lollies. Just a hint of more secondary spice. Charming and balanced wine. A surprise for the age.

  Excellent, 14.5% alc.
  Colour: dark red berry, espresso coffee
  Bouquet: sweet spicey Grenache fruit, blackberry, tobacco, leather, but mainly red berry, herbal
  Palate: as bouquet, very full bodied, evident high alcohol, but balanced by fruit and acid length, mocha coffee, black olives and black cherries, chalky structure, finishes very dry with big soft puckerish tannins. Great berry mouthfeel, silky texture.
