The nose is so leathery and dark I thought it would be overwhelming, but the taste is beautifully dark and refreshing - lots of blackberry, black currant, and enough tannin for structure but not to leave you smacking your lips afterwards. Perfect on its own or with food - exactly what I want from a dark, rich red.

Earthy aroma, big mushroom and slight blackberry. Wonderful acidity and subtle effervescence.

Inky and savory on first taste but don't let it's bitter cloak fool you. Rose, violet, raspberry, blackberry, black plum. Savory herbs, oregano and bay leaf. Tannins that make your teeth fuzzy but alcohol that leaves a pleasant warmth like tawny port. Natural, yes. Drinkable, yes. Party wine par excellence. Pair with unrequited lust.
