Tasting note
This is fully flavoured and value packed with a complex, rich and aromatic nose of mixed berry fruit, black plum, spice and toasty notes. It's a delight on the palate dishing up a balanced and fruit-forward mouthful of flavour -- black currant, cassis and good moderating acidity via ripe cranberry. It's medium-full bodied with good mouth feel and a lengthy, smooth as silk, fruity finish. What's not to like? Pick up a few. Score - 4 1/2 Stars (out of 5).

Under the ruby colour, the nose is medium and complex. Enjoy this dry, full-bodied and woody red featuring refreshing acidity. On the palate, it showcases fleshy tannins and a broad mouthfeel that leads into a medium finish.
