A bright pomegranate red that extends an appealing invitation to the eye. The first impression is of candy and candyfloss. On the second layer a streak of fresh red berries amplified by spice adds zest and magic. The collective impression of the bouquet carries to the palate, leaving an explosive freshness of berries and cinnamon spice. The mouth feel is balanced and super friendly with the aftertaste leaving a feel of sorbet cleanliness without being short. VINTAGE CONDITIONS: The quality of this years harvest can be seen as outstanding. Due to the cooler spring and summer weather conditions, the harvesting period was delayed which meant slow even ripening with stunning flavours.
