The palate is loaded with the same dark-fruit characters, then finishes with chocolate and subtle oak that adds warmth without drowning out the fruit. A soft earthy note comes through on the finish, making it especially good with food and surprisingly easy to keep pouring.

Serving Tips

Serve at 16–18°C. No decanting needed, but 10 minutes in the glass helps the dark fruit open.

Cellaring

Drink now for plush fruit, or cellar for a few years to lean more savoury. Once opened, reseal and refrigerate – best within 3–5 days.
