quite dark red; appealing red berry fruit features on the nose, a spicy raspberry coulis the main imprint – it gives a good first impression. The palate serves floral-infused red berry fruits, raspberry with sweet-noted cooked plum. It grips with tar towards the finish, holds a squeezy and bonny gras, and light crunch tannins. This has character, is authentic. Bottled April 2018.
