Waxy plum and blueberry aromatics with tendrils of fynbos and violet. Confident, rounded and appealing mouthful of ripe plum, pepper and dried herbs. Lively and fresh with good succulence. The wine is well structured with a good frame of integrated oak that lends a subtle nutty nuance. Lingering finish with a suggestion of salinity and liquorice.

Complex bouquet of fruitcake, cedar, cocoa and a perfumed whiff of dried lavender. Broad, fleshy and succulent with all of that the nose promises being delivered on the palate. Spice sprinkled cedar with rich dark fruitcake flavour. Wonderfully soft, rounded and silky palate that shows cohesion and refinement. Impressive density and concentration that doesn’t overwhelm. Nor does the oak used in the maturation of this impressive blend. Plush, comfortable and eminently rewarding with a lingering dry tail.

Understated nose of citrus peel and leaf with floral note on the edges. The wine is rounded with typical gentle citrus and orange flavour, bright and juicy. The palate broadens with a creamy lees element adding to the ripe fruit and marmalade notes. Good breadth, depth and overall harmony. Medium body and length.

Warm appeal of ripe blackberry, cherry and fruitcake aromas. Those same flavours step confidently onto the palate; black cherry, fruitcake and blackberry – with a light brush of herbs and trace of bonfire smoke too. Gentle and easy textured, its light to medium body makes for effortless enjoyment. Supple and succulent to the end.

Warm and friendly on the nose with pleasant fruitcake, black berries, light spice and oak aromas as well as dark chocolate too. That same unfussy, engaging charm is found in the silky smooth and rounded entry. Ample appeal with tasty red and black fruit notes: plum, mulberry and soft Agen prune, Christmas cake and gentle spice highlights round out the palate. A wine that is as comfortable as a favourite pair of slippers …but there is a good frame to support the fruit, with seamless integration of oak and tannin and balanced, succulent ripeness. There is a deeper, dark chocolate and cocoa nuance which elevates the wine from the mundane. Equally impressive is the length of flavour.
