Description
- Earthy oak
- Dark plums
- Smoky wood
- Firm tannins
"There’s no mistaking many of the aromas as the wine opens up in glass from tobacco and dark plums to smoky wood and blackberry. There’s a mix of leather and clove, old violet and preserves. On the palate - toasty, smoky, integrating and dry. Flavours of the fruits show first with dark plum then wood with a cigar note. Tannins are firm-ish, dusty and abundant. Acidity is medium and there’s a nice earthy oaky quality on the finish. Balanced and well made - a wine that will continue to integrate and evolve over the next 3-5 years" Cameron Douglas, Master Sommelier, Oct 2020

Woody for a merlot, soft but full flavoured. With the cork closing and sometimes large amounts of sediment the taste varies between bottles slightly. At worst they're still great value. This case is disappearing quickly, thinking of getting another already.

Up till last year a exceptional wine for the price, unfortunately it’s over the top now(my box was), expect a substantial part to be “off”
