Quite youthful colour, perfumy, rosemary nose and white pepper notes. The wine is juicy with more red fruit character. Great oak integration with velvet tannins.

The nose shows red and black berries, fynbos, lavender and pepper. Concentrated fruit, fresh acidity with crunchy, grippy tannins. Well balanced and flavourful, the finish super-dry.
