Deep, ruby red in colour with chocolate and ripe berry fruit and hints of mint and cigar box notes on the nose. Full bodied with juicy mulberry and cherry flavours and spice on the palate. Soft but firm tannins with a balanced mouth feel and a long finish.

Excellent with North African dishes, spicy Moroccan tanginess, osso bucco and hearty risottos.
