Exotic spiced aromatics that jump from the glass, with nuances of eucalyptus and wild mint followed by perfumed blackcurrant. The wine evolves in the glass opening up to uncover dusty sandalwood tones and a hint of nutmeg. Medium bodied wine showing juicy blood plum skin, cumquat rind and poached rhubarb over the mid-palate. Integrated French oak lifts and lengthens the profile leading to an elegant, spicy finish.
