On the palate this Prince of Reds spins poetry: velvety smooth and beautifully poised with great purity of fruit in harmony with crisp acidity and fine tannins.
The wine is medium bodied, very balanced with an earthy, layered character, covering the entire spectrum of berry fruit - from tart red plums to rich blue and black berries.
A well-endowed, full-bodied Rhône-style blend with intense flavours of ripe plum, black pepper, tapenade and umami. Supple ripe tannins and well-integrated, natural acidity contribute to the appeal.
The beautifully fresh Creation Chardonnay is slightly more fruit-driven than the other with generous quince, pear and peach aromas and flavours, enhanced by fresh minerality and hints of vanilla.
These aromas find resonance on the smooth palate where apricot adds another dimension and blends seamlessly with crisp minerality and bouncy, well-integrated natural acidity
The robust, yet ripe tannins, bolster the structure without the addition of any rough edges. True to its varietal character, the wine ends with lingering flavours of sweetish red berry fruit compote.
