Winemaking and Drinking
Generous fruit is expressed as liqueur cherry with hints of strawberry and wild raspberry. There’s a whiff of sweet spices, white pepper, tomato leaf, roasted meat and thyme. Grilled mushrooms and a hint of toasted oak contribute to the aromatic richness.
Ripe and succulent red fruits are balanced by fine cedar, undergrowth and earthy notes. There is a freshness throughout that provides balance to the remarkably plush and seductive mouthfeel.
