👁 In the Glass:
Deep crimson with purple flashes—rich and alluring.

👃 On the Nose:
Fragrant and complex with dark plum, blackberry, and blueberry aromas. Accents of cracked black pepper, clove, and a touch of smoky oak round out the bouquet.

Full-bodied and polished, with ripe black fruit, pepper spice, and fine-grained tannins. Bright acidity and subtle minerality provide balance, leading to a long, smooth finish with elegance and power.

Fantastic with grilled lamb, slow-cooked beef, spicy sausages, or robust vegetarian dishes. Its depth and balance pair beautifully with richly flavoured fare.

Delicious now with decanting, but will cellar gracefully for 8–12 years, gaining complexity and softness.

✨ Why You’ll Love It:
