"Wonderfully concentrated on the nose with a potpourri of aromas - think plum jam, dark smoky oak and saddle leather. It is inky and opulent with succulent dark fruit, an inviting savouriness, hints of dark orange chocolate and espresso with supple tannins and a long, lifted finish" New Zealand International Wine & Spirits Awards
Ruby red with garnet reflections, intense and persistent fragrance; the bouquet is intense, fruity, persistent, with notes of dried flowers, spice, liquorice, marasca cherries. the palate is stylish, velvety, almost creamy, compact with tannic structure that blends nicely with the alcoholic component. Great structure, complex, elegant, well balanced with a long aftertaste. Opulent fruit.
