WO Robertson. ‘Made to be enjoyed as a youthful red with easy drinking features.’ Fully ripe grapes are fermented in stainless steel tanks, then aged up to eight months on 80% French, 20% American oak. Expressive nose of primary black/blueberry fruit and black pepper. Dark fruit concentration on the full-bodied palate, too, along with some sweet chocolate and vanilla, balanced by bright acidity and peppery notes.
