Opening with deep, rich aromas of dark berries—blackberries, plums, and a touch of mulberry— supported by the toasted oak character and aromatic hints of liquorice, violets and anise.
The palate is full-bodied and robust, with velvety tannins that provide structure and depth. The bright fruit flavours dominate, followed by a layer of liquorice, dark chocolate, and toasted oak, imparting richness and warmth.
There’s a lovely balance of ripe fruit and savory elements, with a lingering finish of spice, making it both bold and refined.

REVIEWS:
93 Points SILVER MEDAL - The Wine Front, Mike Bennie.
"Ripe dark fruit and lightly jammy aromas, yet the palate remains dry and polished, with flavours of bitter orange and spices. Medium-bodied with a fine texture and an easy flow. Balanced and persistent. Drink now. "
90 Points SILVER MEDAL - Decanter Magazine.
"Dried cherries, raspberries, touch of meat, hibiscus and rooibos; palate is herbal and fresh, with cola and spice hints and and well-integrated, fine tannins."
93 Points SILVER MEDAL - Wine Orbit, Sam Kim.
"Richly fruited and enticing, the bouquet presents aromas of blackberry, dark plum, baking spice, and toasty oak, followed by a wonderfully flavoursome palate filled with succulent fruit intensity, supported by a supple texture and beautifully integrated tannins, finishing robust and persistent. At its best now."
