Red wine
Banfi 2016
RRP £30.02
Vivacious and harmonious, with a concentrated bouquet of dark fruit alongside crunchier red cherries and tangy redcurrants. Bold and powerful, with beautiful textural balance and an appealing earthiness interlaced with complex notes of bitter chocolate, cigar box and cedar. Divine!
