Medium to medium+ garnet in colour with a medium+ intense nose.

Juicy and smooth, drink on its own or pair it with food. Best Buy especially at the clearance price.

Positives: This wine features well-integrated oak, smoked meat, blackberry, mulberry, dark cherry, blueberry, oregano, turmeric, leather and graphite. Medium to medium+ body and tannin's with good acidity and a long length.

Drink now or over the next 2 years on its own or pair it with rib eye steak.

Score: 9/10, Value: 9/10 (Clearance price: 9.5/10) Total: 18/20
