The fragrant, medium-high intensity nose is spicy w/ a pleasing mix of ripe red, black & blue fruit aromas, layered over savoury earth, meaty & black pepper spice notes. Stony mineral aromas emerge w/ time in the glass. On the juicy, dry, medium-bodied & well-structured palate the lovely red-black-blue fruit flavour replays are joined by black pepper spice, stony mineral, savoury earth & subtle wood spice flavours. It has crisp, juicy acidity & smooth, refined & gently chewy tannins with a touch of grip. Crisp with stony mineral notes lingering on the excellent length finish. Tasted June 2023.
