Description
The colour is a deep red, actually quite dark given the age, variety and cool vintage conditions. The aroma is an inviting and complex mix of interesting fruit development showing spice, leather, savoury meats and cedary, earthy oak. The palate is full with fleshy tannin, typical of this variety, and ripe, stewed berries and well balanced acidity bringing it to a dry savoury finish. Perfect with lamb shanks and beef casserole.
