A cascade of dark fruit, Davidson plum, cassis and a river of melted dark chocolate. This is indulgent and intoxicating with its richness of fruit and sweet cocoa pod spice. There is a loving way the tannins wrap around the fine acidity, like a cloak holding every together. Clove, cinnamon and vanilla flecks. This will warm the cockles of your heart. A wine you could drink on its own or with the snap of a few squares of good chocolate. Good value and in a lovely drinking spot. Drink now or cellar for 3-4 years further.
