2022 vintage. Strange nose and drying finish. And Diam again. I wish producers would mention on the back label that they use Diam so that I can avoid buying these bottles.

Rich and earthy, this Merlot dominant blend has a medium, smooth body with a nicely stricter mouthfeel, dark currant flavors, and a lot of rich lingering tannins - like Rutherford dust on steroids.

2016 vintage.
Deep dark red colour.
A nice mix of red and black fruit.
Bright raspberries, blackberries, red currant, thyme and tobacco with an earthy finish.
Great acidity and lift on the mid palette with a spicy finish.
