Tasting
This vintage once again affirms the identity of this wine. It reveals the components of the terroirs from which it comes. The colour is clean and dark, the nose is bright with wild fruit, black cherry and freshness. The palate is full-bodied, dense with lovely, wrapped tannins and a long finish.
