Medium to deep red in colour.  The lifted nose is fruit driven with expressive varietal characters of sweet blackberry and star of anise.  The palate is soft and medium bodied but with a good concentration of flavour.  The flavours are in the black fruits spectrum with plum and a hint of blackberry.  The soft and velvety tannins complement the hints of buttery oak to give an added layer to the wine.  The wine finishes long and clean and will cellar up to five years.
