matched by subtle spicy oak |
| |
|

A very complex palate with red berries flavours and fine,
silky tannins |

Full bodied wine matured for 12 months in 50% French and
50% American oak barriques |

Rich and spicy, with good palate weight and varietal
character. The supple tannins encourage drinking, but this wine
should continue to develop well. Highly Recommended
