Aromas of brambly blackberries, mulberries, rhubarb and spice. The palate bursts with juicy red primary fruits, sour cherries, earthy spice and is well supported by well-integrated silky tannin and lively acidity. Though abundant up front the finish is long and savoury. Will impress on immediate consumption however will continue to develop complexity with careful medium-term cellaring. Enjoy with roasted root vegetables or Peking duck pancakes.
