From the very first sniff, I fell in love with the intense florals, sweet pomegranate and hints of spicy, medicinal cough drop characters.  In the mouth there’s a burst of plush, zesty berry, rosehip and cherry flavours alongside fine, sandy tannins.  There’s also a lovely whiff of pot pourri on the finish.

Sorry about the tease, but this wine won’t be available in New Zealand for a couple of weeks.  Email clark@hancocks.co.nz to register your interest.
