A pretty delicately floral wine with red berries at its heart. Tea rose, cranberries and red cherries. The mid palate feels creamy with whispers of oak, powdered nutmeg and some scrapings of paper bark. There is a spark of raspberry acidity that keeps the wine buoyant and bright. Fruit has been adorned well, highlighting its natural pizazz and uplifting energy. A wine that could be served alongside trout or smoked fish as well as pork dishes. Drink now or cellar for 3-4 years further.
