The nose is bursting with aromas of mixedflowers, cherries, mulberries and purple plums. A secondary layer of more earthy, exotic notes put a real stamp on this wine. Ground nutmeg, Italian cured meats and freshly turned soil are a testament to the minimal intervention in the vineyard, the age of the vines and the great sites that those vines have been planted on. The palate is textured and full flavoured. More sweet fruits accompanied by the raft of savoury notes are carried through the palate on a fine yet gritty tannin structure. These tannins, along with the bright natural acidity, lead the wine to a long, lingering and moreish finish.
