Tasting Notes
The red is superb smooth and rich. It's kind of like a style that takes one back to red wines we may have drunk more of in the 2000s, before winemakers made their wines lighter. It's generous and charming. If I wanted to show someone who'd never had a good red wine before what they we missing, I would give them a glass of this. Perfect with with barbeques, and roasts. It's pretty luxurious tasting. It's a blend of Syrah, Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. So you are getting something quite classical on the aroma, but with warmth, yet it holds itself so well, with the beginning of nice mature notes.
