Lovely scents of stone fruit and honey. Bright and zesty with a saline edge. Crowd-pleasing and food-friendly.

Dense purple-black. Lovely lifted red berries and violet. Rounded, generous and supple. It finishes with polished, chalky tannins. A solid, dependable choice.

Bright garnet with brick edges. Lovely fresh-cut grass and gooseberry. Concentrated fruit balanced by fine tannin. A clean, refreshing close. Lovely alongside aged hard cheese. Highly recommended.
