A wine from the Waipara Valley in North Canterbury. A slightly opaque, dense crimson colour in the glass. Complex and vibrant aromas of red cherry, blackberry, mulberry, blood orange and woody spices, A lesson in elegance as fine, filigree tannins caress the mid-weight palate.

With the time in bottle, some secondary, savoury elements are coming out, such as chinotto, mushroom and roasted root vegetables. Quite seamless – the years have smoothed any edges and there\u2019s a lovely flow into a harmonious finish with good persistence. 93pts<\/b><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
