Promising touch of brick in the wine's colour. Meaty, smoked almond and anise-spiced cherry aromas. Some tannic grip but pleasingly subtle in the mouth , the cherry is there and good length but all well balanced.

Drinking very well, focused, supple and quite dry. Dried cherry, licorice, mint, forest floor notes with the tannins still providing traction and a nice wave of acidity to finish. Seemingly at peak. Great with pizza.
