Amber, cherry gold. The nose is wonderfully concentrated – full of dark stewed wild strawberries with sweet oak and this lovely nutty, salty note going straight through it. The first sip is beautifully sensual; so elegant but it builds brilliantly giving texture and grip that I wasn't expecting. The finish is so long with loads of stewed strawberries, sweet cherries and smokey blackcurrants. The texture and creaminess of this is also brilliantly done, capturing this energy in your mouth.
