Tasting Notes

Lustrous garnet with a ruby core. A fresh florality of hibiscus and violets greets the nose, followed by a salted-fynbos breeze and undercurrents of incense, fresh cinnamon and spice. The palate is energetic and bright, floating on silky damson fruit, plums and red cherries, detailed oak-spice and sleek, succulent tannins to a perfumed finish.
