A nicely balanced wine. Roasted capsicum and black fruit characters are soft yet plentiful. Some dried herb swept through late.
After a good decant it settled further more and after looking at the wine a second time it grew on me. A neat touch of oak and lingering mouth warmth were enjoyable. A good buy.
Have with roasted meats over the next few years.
