Very attractive and inviting nose with aromas of blackberries, plums, chocolate, clove, vanilla and cedar notes. On the mouthfeel, medium-full bodied, gorgeous velvet texture, silky tannins and fresh acidity. The finish is medium length, very smooth with flavours of spicy ripe berry fruit, dried figs and bittersweet chocolate.

What a delicious experience! Simply a gorgeous effort by both winemakers who put this well balanced, flavourful blend together for our pleasure.  The oak is well integrated and nothing is over done, letting the quality of the fruit shine.  Definitely a wine with lots of appeal, where quality vs price ratio is well in your favour. Cheers my wine friends ๐Ÿท
