Allowing for dedicated vineyard expression and crafted from the best barrels, the wine showcases the complexity, finesse, broadness of palate, depth and length obtainable when all components are skillfully harmonised and terroir respected.

Colour: Deep dark red middle with a ruby red rim.

Bouquet: Rich blackcurrant and black cherry fruit upfront combines well with the elegant cedar oak aromas.
