Tasting Notes:
“ Very reasonably exotic on the nose, there is a large whack of oak here, but it cannot dent the lovely Merlot fruit which commands the centre of this wine. This is a carefully balanced wine with layers of mint and berry and the finish is full and expressive and it rolls on for minutes. ”
