Hated this wine and disappointing for a £15.99. Lacks any depth and complexity. Tastes of ripe black cherries and dark plums followed by a clinging sweetish sickly vanilla/cinnamon after taste. Poor expression for a Roja.

Blend of Malvasia Fina (70%), Gouveio (30%). Clean Straw colour. Nice aromatic fresh nose with hint of gooseberry and cedar. Good structure with minerality and length. Well rounded in the mouth. Good match at Yeatman Gourmet lunch.
