Winemakers Comments and Tasting Notes

A wine with a filling rounded palate, a good background of fine tannins and finishing with attractive sweet fruit and clean acidity. Fine, elegant nose showing a touch of cassis, complex with integrated oak to show cedar and cinnamon highlights. A delightful full red colour with attractive bright hues.
