Tasting Notes

Beautiful dark red colour The nose is fresh but still slightly closed. Good notes of red fruit and blackcurrant. The oak is well-integrated. The attack on the palate is pleasant, soft and full-bodied. The wine quickly develops volume. Superb richness. The tannins remain silky smooth and round. Excellent length, very much in the classic style of Duhart’s terroir. Should be at its peak 4 to 8 years.
