Seek this red out - it's not in every store, just 509 nationwide in fact, but for under a tenner it's a steal. A herbaceous, minty nose has aromas of aromatic dried fruits, cedar and pot-pourri. In the mouth, intense violet-tinged autumnal fruits give way to fresh tobacco, black pepper, cedar and a seam of delicious cranberry acidity. Well balanced, this is an elegant and serious wine to drink with a good cut of roast lamb.
