Deep garnet red colour. Attractive, spicy, juicy, ripe plum-cherry puree nose with faintly smoky, cedary notes. Dry, medium bodied, nicely structured, harmonious, fairly spicy, juicy, intense, ripe, plum-cherry puree flavours with a lingering, sandalwood-tinged, faintly smoky, cedary finish. A ready-to-drink crowd-pleaser. This blend of 44% Grenache, 31% Mourvedre and 25% Shiraz has 14.5% alcohol and 2 g/L residual sugar with lot number L20030 on the lower part of the glass bottle. Screwcap closure. |

TASTING NOTE: Chocolate-covered cherry in an earthy core makes for a graceful and delicious first impression by this layered red. Acidity has verve, lifting ripe cherry and plum with a graceful sprinkling of white pepper. Tannins are easygoing but present, building the wine's exceptional frame.
