12/9/2022 - Ernestas Likes this wine: 89 Points
A rich blend, made from 60% CS, 20% Shiraz, 5% of each - Merlot, CF, Malbec and PV. Aged for 18 months in 70% FR and 30% US oak, 50% new. Deep opaque ruby colour. Medium intensity aroma of blackberries, cassis, candied hints, licorice, violets, young leather, tar. Full body, fresh and slightly austere, with vibrant and fresh black fruit flavours, floral hints, high acidity along finely grained tannins.

Roasted, toasty, dark berry, walnut, and marmite nose. Big flavours with dry, chewy tannins; firm assertive finish.
