Solid. Some nice cherry fruits, fair bit of oak evident. sarsparilla cola, nice tannins. good drink. |
Nice crunchy acidity, tight, pithy pomegranate. Subtle, initially subdued but gains with time in glass. |
Approachable and straightforward style - good presence of fruit. |
Attractive nose. soft. nice structure and flesh, fennel. elegant and med bod. ok carry, tad fruit short but savoury carry |
