The wine is a very dense red shading to violet at the rim. Reflecting the high proportion of Merlot the nose opens on intense almost jammy red fruit aromas mingled with mouth-watering vanilla and roast coffee notes. Powerful and full-bodied on the palate this is a perfectly structured wine with young crisp fruit. Forward freshness gives great vigour to the tannic structure and contributes to the overall balance of a wine with a powerful and flavourful finish which augurs well for its ageing potential.
