Colour

Ruby tending towards garnet.

Bouquet

Incipit of wet earth and bark, then dark spices, jammy bramble fruit, crunchy cherry, liquorice, fern and clear mineral sensations.

Flavour

Full-bodied, fresh and soft at the same time. Lovely finish, outlined by beautifully crafted tannins.

Pairing

Sliced fassona beef with rosemary.
