A bright, clear wine. More savoury than fruity, a faint hint of clove and fresh cardamom adds intrigue to the nose, with flavours suggestive of plum, cranberry and red liquorice coming through on the palate. The most seductive feature of this release is the wonderfully plush, velvety mid-palate, the fine, textural spread of tannins and the long, tight, spicy finish.
