There is a delicate perfume of Kirsch and dried strawberry with underlying dried bouquet garni. This is a light to medium-bodied wine with a supple yet generously flavoured palate.

Cooler blackcurrant, violet and spicy herb aromatics lead to a seamless elegantly poised wine showing lots of finesse and drive in a feminine style. A wine of bright fruit characters. Will cellar for up to 6-10 years.

The juicy flavours from the nose continue with a mouth filling dark cherry and luscious cassis character matched with supple mouth filling tannin that gives a silken textural structure.
