Description
Medium intense, redolent of December picked cherries. Multi layered nose of pencil shavings, rich, dense Christmas cake, black fruit, crushed chocolate mint leaves and black tea. The palate is full bodied with grippy, but ripe tannins and a definitive line of acidity. Dark chocolate with touches of allspice, ripe plums and Logan berry. The wine finishes dry with a strong emphasis on blue berries to add a perceptive sweetness and round off the after taste. Enjoy this wine now, or savour it for the next 10 years.
