"Aromas and flavours of fresh red cherry and cranberry, there's a fine mineral quality as well as a floral note with clay and stone then rose. Baking spices of vanilla and a whisper of cinnamon add complexity and mystery. Dry, floral, fruity and textured as the wine touches the palate. There's a youthful taut quality emphasizing the acidity and tannins, but these will ease as the wine ages. Flavours of fruits and flowers, barrel spices and textures combine to showcase a wine that is tasty and youthful." - Cam Douglas MS
The bouquet is expressed with dark red cherry, plum along with vanilla and spice. The palate has dark red and dark cherry fruit flavours on the palate. The gentle influence of French oak melds into the wine and the wine is very drinkable.
If you like full bodied Italian style reds particularly Amarone then this is a really good everyday drinking alternative. Especially suited for winter meals or perhaps bbq lamb in summer. I’ve just finished ordering some more.
A great range to select from but scored 4 for a 2 day delivery in AKL & challenges in processing my order online.
