 Fruit power is the hallmark of this blend: dark berry fruits and some sage adding a background herbal lift. Christmas cake mixed spice and oak are evident, but all in balance with the fruit. Beautiful fruit, a bright acid drive and tannins that form a solid foundation for the long future. Brooding but not intimidating, this will be exciting to watch evolve.
