Its aromatics are slow to unwind from a deep core of red cherry, cranberry and blood orange to finer accents of tobacco, iodine, dried herbs and bitters. The palate is approachable and juicy with understated, bitters-laced fruit and a long, spicy finish. 414 cases were made. Recently bottled, it will have even more on offer in 2-3 years.

The medium-bodied palate boasts powerful, earthy fruits in a silky, seamless frame, and it finishes with loads of spicy nuances. 444 cases were made. It deserves 3-5 years to unwind in bottle.
