Big earthy herb and spice nose. good fruit weight. excellent tannin and acid that works perfectly with the fruit that shines through despite being properly dry. It's very good.

Easy drinking. Sour cherry varietal character and some residual sugar. Not great length but it was less than 15 pounds at Heathrow

A melange of red fruits & jam dominating the nose & palate. Black pepper flavours adds a bit of spice. Soft low tannins & medium body. Would complement a wide range of foods.
