Mellow vanilla, redcurrants with a touch of grass are subtle on the nose with more red fruits emerging on the palate. It is medium bodied with some grippy tannins and lingering cherry flavours. The growing season was off to an early start in 2016 due to a mild winter but was slowed somewhat by spring rains. The ensuing warm dry summer led to perfect grape maturity and another great vintage following the success of 2015.
