Macerated blackberries, red licorice straps, redskins and raspberry coulis. A herbal bay leaf with pungent spices of star anise, aniseed and clove. This falls into the red jubey cranberry and toffee apple realm which has its attractions, it’s crunchy and extremely bright in its youth. Tannins are firm and acidity matches the pitch. Sandy with a hint of stemmy green hue that suits the red fruit. A lively wine that would drink well with a fig, pomegranate and labneh salad.
