  For its alcohol, this is a surprisingly light and fruity wine. It does have tannins although they are subservient to the red berry fruitiness and freshness of the wine. It's balanced and aromatic, and could age further. Drink from 2017.

  Still firm in tannins, this has developed into an austere and dark wine. It is serious and solid, with a firm, brooding character and layers of acidity as well as black currant fruits. It is probably ready to drink now.

  A curious blend of local grapes with Syrah and Merlot has produced a bold, ripe wine. The tannins are soft, surrounded by juicy plum and damson flavors and a broad, ripe texture.

  In keeping with the rest of the range from Azamor, this is an elegant wine, where the tannins and the red and black berry fruits stay firmly in check behind a mineral edge and fresh acidity. The wine now has some good age, and shows fine integration.
