Brilliant pale lemon. Lovely mineral and saline on the nose. Elegant, fresh and persistent. The aftertaste is bright and mineral. A solid, dependable choice.

Dense purple-black. Lovely ripe plum and warm spice. Concentrated fruit balanced by fine tannin. Lingering notes of spice and dark fruit. Lovely alongside aged hard cheese. Punches well above its weight.
