Fresh & funky with sappy berry and tart cherry + herby, spicy whiff. Light yet edgy, with surprisingly chewy tannins yet still pure fruit. There’s a nice mineral streak to it as well. Not bad, but was more interesting in prev vintages.

A highly aromatic red. On the palate, it’s like a minerally, dark pinot noir. Great acid and interesting funkiness on the back end. Good stuff.

Lighter in colour than we expected but nice red fruit and herbal aroma. Fizzes on the tongue and then a flinty dryness with good length. Paired well with slow cooked lamb and also sausage pasta with borolo sauce.
