Colour starting to change but good fruit and plasing mouthfeel
Deep ruby colour with violet tones. Wild berries and cedar on the nose. A little bit closed at first, but opens up to dry flowers, coffee crystals and some fruit on the nose. In the mouth it feels round, but has a drying mid palate and slightly bitter finish. There is a balanced acidity, backbone, and tannin structure that make this wine enjoyable for the price.
