Drinking Window: 2022 - 2028
A big brute of a wine, bubbling over with blackcurrants, plums and spicy black cherries. There's a ferrous tang to the palate, with a zip of red apple and menthol. Big and bold - as evidenced by its hefty 16% alcohol. But it does carry it well - with some curranty freshness. Launching in early June 2022 and only available in 147 stores.
