Our Bordeaux-style blend offers up an abundant nose of cherry, red currant, crème de cassis, leather, earth and florals all beautifully leading into a palate of spiced plums, boysenberry, tobacco, savory dried herbs, red chili and dark chocolate. The mouthfeel is round and velvety with tremendous length, concentration, balancing acidity and fully-integrated tannins.

Judges Selection [GFW23]

2023 Global Fine Wine Challenge

88 | High toned oak. The palate is super sweet. A slurpy style. Drying tannin. Lacks a little flow and harmony.

88 | Strange camphor, angelica, spice aromas, lacks freshness and clean fruit depth. Very grippy tannins, very drying.

89 | dusty firm tannins oak and hunts of OX and oatmeal, open-knit and hedonistic, spicy finsh

89 | Big chocolatey wine. Still quite a lot of tannin - seems stuck in time, not really developing any interesting complexity.
