Reviews and Ratings

Jennifer Havers - WSET Level 3 rated this wine as 88/100 with the following review:

Aromas of black plum, tart cherry, a bit of tobacco, smoky spice, and leather. Full bodied and flavourful on the palate, the fruit flavours are ripe, with a slight tart hit on the back palate, and the smoky, leathery hints carry through on the finish. Enjoy with a hearty beef or lentil stew.
