Old world. Earth and cherry on the nose. Fruit forward countered by earth. 93 from Ryan, 90 from me.

Easy to drink. Not very mature but less sour. Goes with any dishes.

Deep dark colour with a nice body that delivered a smooth and balanced wine. Cherries, dark fruit and subtle hints of spice that helped a roast turkey, gammon and various trimmings shine.
