A dark red/black in colour. The nose is dominated by black cherries, with secondary notes of sarsaparilla, leaf, mint, sweet oak and a touch of herbaceousness. The palate showed red currants and stalk, leafy red fruits and a touch of rawness on the finish. Overall, very smooth, with some robust flavours, and offers good value for money (assuming the quoted price is right). Drink over the short term.
