Tasting Notes:
Colour | Inky purple-black at the core, bright violet hue
Bouquet | Blueberry pie, juicy black plum, dark chocolate, smoky bacon and sweet vanilla-oak, with a lift of cracked black pepper and mocha
Palate | Full, plush and round, floods the mouth with ripe blueberry and plum, wrapped in toasty vanillin oak and cocoa; velvety tannins and gentle warmth carry it to a long, smoky, peppery finish that feels comforting rather than heavy
Pairs well with:
Meat | Barbecued beef short ribs with sticky glaze with crunchy slaw
Seafood | Grilled prawns with garlic butter and smoked paprika (yes, it works!)
Vegetarian |Â Charred eggplant steaks with miso-maple glaze and sesame
Vegan | Lentil-mushroom shepherd’s pie with truffle oil
Cheese | Vintage sharp cheddar with fruit chutney, sliced pink lady apple and a handful of roasted walnuts
Alcohol | 14%
Volume | 750mL
