"Bright ruby colour with the most beautiful aromatic nose of lifted juicy red and black cherry, rose petals and violets, and hints of strawberry, raspberry and mulberry. On the palate red cherry fruit is centre stage, with some more savoury thyme, rosemary and lavender herbal notes and a hint of Chinese five spice. Firm, fine grained tannins add structure to the wine, as does juicy red fruited acidity. Delicious to drink right now with a chunk of Ossau-Iraty cheese (traditionally served with a spoonful of cherry jam), and a lovely match to pan-fried duck breast with duck-fat roasted potatoes. Will age well if you have the patience!" - Winemaker Notes
"Deep red with a tint of purple; flowery and fresh green herbal aromas, the palate is intense and full, with ample cherry and plum flavours laced with dried herbs, a lovely core of sweet ripe fruit, the finish lingering on well with fine, drying tannins. Delicious!" - 93 Points, Huon Hooke, The Real Review
