Raspberry, cranberry and cherry are sharply defined, with violet, apricot and dusky spice adding lift and detail. The palate opens firm and structured, then softens gradually, revealing layered red fruit, a touch of orange peel and refined tannins. Texture and freshness carry the wine through a composed, persistent finish. Decant briefly and serve with duck, roast pork, salmon, wild mushrooms or earthy lentil dishes.

Black cherry and plum lead, accented by violet, dried herbs and bay laurel. The palate is dense and focused, with brilliant red and black fruit framed by impressive tannins and racy acidity. Olive, savoury herbs and a saline edge bring definition through the middle. The finish is long and energetic, retaining bright fruit, mineral tension and a composed, structured feel.
