TASTING NOTES

COLOUR: A clean, bright-coloured wine with a ruby-red hue and some violet undertones. NOSE: Medium to powerful aromatics with hints of fresh red berry fruits, such as red currants and raspberries, together with toasted and roasted coffee bean notes. PALATE: A silky, elegant entry on the palate. Deliciously rich with good acidity and very pleasant, well-integrated tannins. Intense red berry fruit flavours come through in the finish. The oak is harmoniously integrated bringing hintsof toast and vanilla, characteristic of a wine aged in American oak.

WINEMAKING NOTES

AGEING: The wine was aged at least 12months in American oak barrels, then in bottle before being released onto the market.
