Fresh, fruity attack, with rich aromas and flavors of black cherry and raspberry. Almost creamy texture, with good palate length. Docker Hill has lively acidity; it is slightly closed now, and needs some time to develop. It has a longer finish on the palate than other wines in this grouping. 14.1% Alcohol; 402 cases produced.
