Description
Deep garnet in colour, this wine is dark and brooding with aromas of forest floor, black cherry and chocolate coated coffee bean. The palate has spicy, peppery notes with thyme, violets and typical Southern Valleys grainy texture. A juicy Pinot Noir which would benefit from being decanted.
