Medium-bodied with fine, firm tannins and a juicy, lightly chewy finish. Turns smoky and almost peaty at the end with dried herbs local to the volcanic slopes. Typical and sophisticated.

There are pinot-like characteristics here, but the structure is powerful with firm, dusty tannins and a solid spine of acidity balanced by fruit concentration. Poised and straightforward.

Plush upon entry, this sweeps across the palate with perfumed red berry fruits and nuances of candied citrus that add lovely contrast. It finishes long and crisp, leaving a crunchy sensation.
