Idiom Zinfandel 2018

Silky and spicey. This elegant, medium-bodied expression of Stellenbosch Zinfandel exhibits a superb power-to-weight ratio. Aromas of candied raspberry and hibiscus dominate the nose. An effortless entry leads to an explosive revolving tray of bay leaf, tobacco and mulberry flavours dancing on the palate. A refreshing wine with an attractive long finish.
