Medium depth crimson. Lifted blueberry, blackcurrants and black olive are evident on the nose, with lovely cedar and hints of liquorice and sweet spice adding to the complexity. Bright and rich berry fruits coat the palate and mingle with brambly spice, hints of black olive and liquorice. Full-bodied with velvety, fine tannins adding to the structure which flows through the long, fruity and spicy finish.
Pair this wine alongside mushroom risotto, braised beef ribs or beef cheeks, duck, or hard cheeses.
