| Winemaker Notes:
Enticing aromas of bright red fruits such as cherry, strawberry and raspberry and more than a hint of darker fruits such as blackberry, black currant and some plum. Pleasant oak integration with toned down vanilla and sweet oak in combination with the fruit creates a nice spice character. Very soft, smooth and medium bodied in the mouth and as it opens up revealing complex hints of earthy undertones.
