Big boy, dark fruit driven, liquorice, blackberries, dark chocolate, ample bodied, well played oak and fine tannins. A Bordeaux blend with a warmer side.

Bit fresh (2020), will need to lay this down a while to develop.

Deep maroon colour, dark red fruits on the nose, high tannins, ripe plum with a bit of freshness.
