Mid red in a crimson core. Notes of fresh earth greet the nose. Aromas of balsam, dried juniper, bay leaf and red current. Background notes of Eucalypt and mint leaf add depth and layer. Fresh and buoyant with a medium to full bodied palate. Sweet fruited entry of red current, dried juniper, baked plum leads to a mid palate which turns savory and tight. The tannin profile has accents of fresh turned earth and fresh cedar. The finish is long and harmonious with complimentary notes of bay leaf, balsam and dried rosemary. All these combined to provide a plate that is long with lovely complex details and layers. An interesting wine that is both varietal and regional.
