Wonderfully bright, with lively aromatics, skewed towards ripe, dark summer fruits and crushed floral complexities. Cherry, raspberry, and a touch of cola bottle on the nose, with savoury complexities of wood and mocha meandering onto the palate. An alluring spiciness and hint of vanilla from the oak adds a certain brooding quality to the wine, complete with fresh acidity and silky tannins that make this instantly accessible.
