Tasting Note

Colour:
Deep and bright purple with ozone blue and pink rim-edge highlights.


Nose:
Aromatics and bouquet are here beautifully and inseparably combined: white chocolate and fresh lavender buds; cooking spices such as black pepper, nutmeg and cinnamon; then comes fresh rosemary and fresh laurel leaves and browned meat juices; finally zephyrs of rose petal, nougat and violets. Pure shiraz underpinned by a nuance of fine oak. 

Palate: 

Bright red berries at dawn spark a burst of fruit before being quickly brought to heel by a long, clear line of natural acidity. Fine tannins boulevardier all the way from the first sip to palate’s end, and in a way that is noticeable rather than ostentatious. Aniseed and blueberry playoff mulberry and plums. As is the wine’s nose, the palate is balanced to within a Troy ounce of impossible perfection.

Food Pairing

This wine’s symmetry of aroma and bouquet and of primary and secondary flavours make it wonderfully versatile when it comes to guests, foodstuffs, and politics. Complex stews, communist tendencies, or people you met the other day on the beach - it will suit and salve and solve.
