With ripe berry flavours combined with an attractive savoury quality, this rounded and flavoursome red is a winner at just $18.99.

Cameron Douglas MS writes "A bright, youthful and refreshing wine with a bouquet of fresh red cherries and cranberry, some earthy clay-like soil ideas and a gentle spiced almost smoky lift. Firm and dry on the palate, tannins deliver a fine texture, almost needle point in nature, acidity frames the wine overall with a salivating quality. Core fruit flavours of red berries, cranberry and cherry return. Balanced, well made and ready."
Sam Kim, Wine Orbit writes "Delightfully fruited and expressed, showing sweet cherry, rich floral, game, and nutmeg aromas on the nose, leading to a silky-smooth palate offering ripe fruit flavours with finely infused tannins, making it supple and immediately appealing.
Stephen Wong MW writes "Subtle, earthy spice over cherry and sumac aromas are lifted by a twist of blood orange. Early tannins coat the tangy palate with an amaro edge. The light-weight flavours of cherry and pomegranate persist against lightly chewy tannins, staining the elegant, structured palate with streaks of fruit before it all turns savoury on the finish."
