This wine is just starting to hit its straps. It offers a lovely rich fruit-filled nose with undercurrents of leather and spice. In the mouth we get rounded bright red plum and cherry flavours carried by smooth sweet bright structure. It's still young, showing fresh acidity, but there's tannic body there to promise very fine depth and complexity with a few more years.
