With purple hues and a bright crimson edge, this wine is extremely fragrant, revealing aromas of fresh raspberries, maraschino cherries and peppery spices. The palate is medium-bodied with flavours of juicy berries and soft tannins, with exotic subtleties of pomegranate and rose.

Supple tannins lead into a long, lingering finish. It is drinking beautifully now and will improve in the bottles over the next five years or so.
