Extremely deep intense purple colour. Intense, spicy, cedary, crancherry nose. Dry, medium bodied, tangy, plummy, ripe cherry flavours with a lingering, spicy, cedary finish.

TIM APPELT / score 87.5-points: Deep ruby-purple in colour. Lightly floral with ripe blueberry, blackberry and black currant fruit on the nose. Dry, balanced acidity and alcohol, fine tannins, with ripe berry fruit and a hint of chocolate on palate. Pleasant and approachable.

TASTING NOTE: A juicy and rich red with dark berry, chocolate and almond aromas and flavors. Full body, chewy tannins and a long, flavorful finish. Very salty on the finish. Impressive. A blend of 79% malbec, 11% bonarda and 10% syrah. Better in 2018. Score - 93 (James Suckling, jamessuckling.com, May 20, 2016) |
