Aromas of blackberries, blueberries, mocha, potpourri and graphite. The palate is full-bodied with fine, supple tannins, balanced acidity and a generous, refreshing finish. Nicely constructed. Drink or hold.

Pronounced aromas of tropical fruit with touches of guava. Mouthwatering texture with flavours of honey apple and melon, juicy acidity and a zippy finish.
