Tuturi is always the edgiest wine at Wild Irishman - and my personal favourite of the core range. Translucent purple in the glass, it shows peppery, spicy red fruit laced with cranberry, wild strawberry and rosemary. The palate is fine boned and pithy, with a texture that folds tannin, wood spice and fruit together beautifully. The fruit is ripe, but pithy and very vibrant. The finish is long and focused, chalky and moreish. Excellent.

Pale crimson. Juicy, raspberry fruit. Very flattering and polished with a sappy, energetic finish. (JR) 2025 - 2032
Deeper colour with a purple rim. Restrained aromas of macerated blackberry and bramble with dried herbs, this has a complex personality and earthy tones which expand across the mid-weight palate. Notably crisp acidity keeps everything tight and fresh. This presents itself with a lightness and elegance, held together by persistent, fine chalky tannins and has latent power which will need a year or two to express itself 20 Nov 2025
