"Fabulous depth of fruit and intensity from this red. Full, chewy and rich with blackberry and dark chocolate character. Long and rich. A blend of Malbec and Syrah. Needs a year or two to mellow but already first-class." (James Suckling 2017)

About the wine:
Fabulous depth of fruit and intensity in this red. Full, chewy and rich with blackberry and dark chocolate character. Long and rich. A blend of Malbec and Syrah. Needs a year or two to mature, but already first-class.
