Bottle from Eltham Wines. Purple pour with a pink head. Nose is blackcurrant jam, red plums,verbena, blackberries. Taste is more of the same plus a spot of lemon sherbet. Unsurprisingly dry & tart.

375 ml bottle. Murky dark red / purple with a pink fluffy head. Loads of cassis, red currant, raspberry, cranberry, very tart, cake, vanilla, lime juice, lactic acid, fermented cabbage, tannins, black sour cherry, red wine, oak barrel. Acidic sourness, hints fruity berry sweetness. Fully bodied, creamy texture, lively carbonated, dry sour fruity finish. Great fruity and intense sour, very complex.
