Tasting note

deep ruby with purple highlights; ripe red and black berry aromas with peppery spice; full bodied; juicy berry flavour with soft oak in medium finish

This dry, medium-bodied and woody red displays a complex and intense nose. On the palate, its refreshing acidity, smooth tannins, and full-bodied texture precede a medium finish.

The bouquet has tantalizing aromas of dark plums and black fruits with just a hint of oak in the background. It is a seamless wine with an excellent structure, its rich fruit reined in by firm tannins. This wine is a perfect accompaniment with steak, roast beef and lamb and excellent with pizza and meat based pasta dishes. It is delightful with aged cheddar or pecorino cheeses.

Stunning rich full middle palate with a mélange of dark chocolate fruits with just a hint of aniseed. The fruit opulence is restrained by the soft fine-grained tannins. Outstanding with fillet of beef, roast game, or comfort food like casserole or a homemade steak & kidney pie. Also excellent with poultry and mature cheddar.
