Winemaker’s Notes:
-
- Color: Bright ruby red
- Nose: A haunting perfume of old rose and violets, damson plums and cherries with a decent handful of oaky briar spice for good measure.
- Palate: Hot on the heels of the stonking 2019 vintage, the 2020 is a more refined drop – a subtle, nuanced palate of red plums, raspberries and cherries, a hint of cinnamon and some earthy spicy oak. Juicy acidity gives the wine a classy structure and length, supported by fine, polished, savory tannins
