TASTING NOTE: While the wine is no more than medium-bodied, it has life and lift that immediately grab attention, allied with a seductive mix of red and blackcurrant fruit, oak spice and dried bay leaf. Even the tannins are warm and inviting, the finish leaving the mouth in a good frame of mind. A surprise packet in every way. Drink By: 2024. Special Value.
