Medium light ruby with a wide watery pink rim . Quite aromatic with fresh cut herbs like rosemary and thyme , strawberry jam, sweet black cherry and black pepper. On the palate this is quite rounded and sweetly fruited with red fruits dominating , cherry , strawberry and raspberry , with some of the black pepper and thyme notes of the nose . There is a bit of warmth and generosity on the palate, with a round mouthfeel . However it has balanced acidity with ripe but noticable tannins , and a saline , seaside tinge on the reasonable finish . Enjoyable now this will probably age alright over the next 5 years or so , though with more time it will loose its juicy , fruit driven character that makes it appealing .
