Plum-purple at the core with a vibrant purple rim, this wine opens with an inviting nose of icing sugar, cocoa powder, and chinotto, layered with savoury notes of freshly sliced beef fillet, olive tapenade, red miso, and a hint of baking spice. On the palate, Shiraz richness meets Cabernet structure in a medium-bodied, balanced expression that feels rounded and complete. Juicy red fruits—cherry and plum—take centre stage, supported by a mouth-coating texture and velvety, savoury tannins. Contemporary and approachable, this wine offers both complexity and immediate appeal.
