Tasting note	Aromas of blackcurrant, nutmeg and pepper dominate with subtle earthy tones. The palate has fine grained tannin and fresh acidity with soft bramble and plum fruit flavours and a rounded, winter spice finish. PDF download full product information
Awards and Accolades	Decanter, March 2013, Highly recommended 17 points Fine needle, bacon, redcurrant, pepper and clove on the nose. Ripe, almost sweet, silky in texture, yet still showing attractive acidity, with lovely stony minerality underpinning the black fruit core. Vibrant and charming - a country-style wine with an agreeable sense of terroir.
