When to drink this wine From 2024 and can be kept for decades.

Tasting notes: ‘Aromas of redcurrants and sweet berries with floral and tile notes. Quite full-bodied with firm but polished tannins and a juicy finish. Savoury and slightly peppery on the finish. Give the tannins time to soften. Try it after 2024... ‘
