Hester Creek Character Red 2023

A blend of Petit Verdot, Malbec, Syrah and Italian Merlot. Deep purple in colour; cedary, spicy, black fruit nose; medium-to-full-bodied, dry; savoury blackberry flavour with well-integrated oak, mellow tannins and a lively spine of acidity. A well-balanced wine. (tonyaspler.com,Nov. 19, 2024)
