Vintage Assessments Tasting Note Producer KEW VINEYARDS
Medium-deep red colour with a faint amber tinge. Intense, complex, gently earthy, slightly spicy, attractive, ripe plum-crancherry nose with some minerally, cedar-sandalwood-tinged, raspberry notes. Dry medium to medium-light bodied, very bright, slightly spicy, ripe crancherry flavours with a lingering, crisp, gently earthy, harmonious, cedar-sandalwood-tinged finish that shows good mid-palate structure.
