Reviews and Ratings

Jennifer Havers - WSET Level 3 rated this wine as 89/100 with the following review:

Lovely! Aromas of currant, dark cherry, leather and eucalyptus. Full bodied with some young tannins, ripe currant and berry hints, and a bit of leather on the finish along with a hint of black pepper. Enjoy with rustic meatball dishes.
L.J. Palmer WSET 3 rated this wine as 89/100 with the following review:

Deep ruby coloured, juicy full bodied dry wine that is smoother with food. Lovely dark fruit aromas of blackberry and black cherry, with baking spice, perhaps some black pepper, vanilla and an earthy note. Very smooth and easy drinking when paired with slow cooked beef brisket.
