Tasting Notes:

Layers of flavoured ripe fruit, fragrant herbs and sweet spices, hints of honey, and mineral notes. Good weight, well integrated oak. Fresh and vibrant with nicely balanced acidity. Long and dry finish.

Notes: It is recommended to uncork two hours before consuming. The wine was bottled without filtration or stabilisation, so it could present sediments. To be drunk now and for the next 2-3 years.
