Brightly aromatic with lifted fruit aromas of dark cherry, wild strawberry and pomegranate, leading to hints of earth and savoury spice and an element of fine oak toast in the background. The palate is generously fruited with morello cherry and raspberry flavours, and the tannins are supple yet savoury and intermingle with the fruit layer. A bright line of cranberry-like acidity pulls everything together. Fine, long and intricately detailed this wine can be drunk now but will gain further complexity with medium term cellaring.
