A red wine meets rosé experience with a strong tannic, grippy bent to a wine that brings a serious richness of cherry, raspberry and wild strawberry fruits and earthy spice. Texturally, there is a slight sweetness and rich earthiness behind a layer of summer berries and savoury spice. Finishes on the fuller side which makes it ideal as a food partner. Now–2028
