Notes:

The Signature 2001 is a dense, plummy red that shows all the hallmarks of a classic 'Signature' wine. Rich red currants, plums and berries abound on the nose with tobacco and black pepper, creamy mocha chocolates, and hints of mint and anise. The palate initially fills out with dark berry and forest fruit flavours, into a fleshy mid palate surrounded with firm yet fine tannins. The wine finishes with a mouthful of layered lingering tannins.
