This is a deep, plum-shot dark ruby-violet - a beautiful, enticing colour. The nose combines an array of red and black berry fruit, black cherries, violets and warm plum compote. The palate mirrors these ripe, sweet aromatics with additional spice, pepper and raspberry refreshment. Seductively textured, the richness is underpinned by ripe, firm tannins, coated in fruit. Intense and concentrated, this nonetheless retains characteristic Dona Maria elegance and charm, remaining focused throughout a protracted. Generous finish.
