There's a raw mineral edge to the nose that complements the earthy spice, cranberry and raspberry fruit. Combined, it evokes autumn: the crunch of leaves, tree sap, pine needles and dried wildflowers. The tannins are, true to region, raspy and bone dry, allowing the tart red fruit some juiciness but then sucking it away, leaving the mouth parched yet satisfied.

Juicy and vibrant, with a firm structure adding a muscular edge to the core of black cherry, wild blackberry and blueberry flavors. Delivers details of dried lavender, black pepper and Earl Grey that add a complex, aromatic note on the long, expressive finish. Drink now. 2,000 cases made, 400 cases imported.
