1 person found it helpfulMar 16th, 2019A 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.

Clear, deep ruby colour. Clean, pronounced strawberry and raspberry aromas. Dry, medium bodied with well balanced acidity and tannins and long finish. Flavours of strawberries and raspberries as well as a degree of earthiness and minerality. Very good quality wine.
