James Suckling 90pt

This has a youthful nose of blackberries, tobacco and some stones. The palate is medium- to full-bodied and straightforward, with supple tannins, dark berry character and a subtle finish.

Tasteing notes

Deep ruby in colour. The nose shows expressive notes of red fruits in perfect harmony with delicate floral aromas. The palate starts in an engaging way, evolving into a wine of excellent volume that poses a solid structure and silky tannins. The finish is fresh, balanced and persistent. Serve at a temperature between 16 to 18 degrees celcius.

Vinification
