Colour: Bright with a crimson heart and a purple rim.
Nose: Crushed summer berry and ripe plums aromas with delicate vanilla spice and earthy undertones.
Palate: Medium bodied explosion of red berry flavours offset by a hint of spice. Well balanced silky mouth-feel with soft ripe tannins.
Overall: An easy drinking medium-bodied red wine offering ample juicy red fruit and pleasing complexity.

Enjoy on its own or with pasta, pizza, duck and a variety of red meat dishes.
