This Durif shows classic characteristics of dark berries, black pepper and earthy tones with surprisingly silky tannins. The iron fist in the velvet glove – Savoury complexity balances the intense fruit flavours that make this a wine you can drink young but will love when mature. Grab some rich venison or a Tomahawk steak and enjoy over a few glasses – Decanting prior is highly recommended.

Drink: Now or put away for up to 10 years
