Deep ruby with soft violet hues — bright, youthful, and inviting.

👃 On the Nose:
Aromatic and rich, offering generous notes of ripe plum, blackberry jam, and cherry compote, with a hint of sweet spice and a touch of earthy warmth.

👅 On the Palate:
Medium-bodied and fruit-forward, delivering soft plummy flavours and jammy red fruits, balanced by a dry, tannic bite that provides firm structure and a long, persistent finish. The texture is smooth but lifted by a touch of rustic grip that gives it character and depth.

Best enjoyed in its youthful vibrancy within 3–5 years, while the fruit remains fresh and the tannins structured yet approachable.
