Creamy black cherry fruit backed up with slightly medicinal notes greet the nose, all accented with gentle soil tones and hints of briary herbs and vanilla. Nice and tight on entry with good focus and energy across the palate. This delivers finely balanced black cherry fruit across the palate, framed with modest but firm tannins and accented with licorice, cocoa and wood spice tones. There’s a fine freshness to this and wonderful varietal character. This finishes with great briary blackberry fruit that lingers and ends on a nice earthy spice note. 91pts
