Lovely plush fruit. plenty of tannins - nice and supple. solid framework nice long finish. good balance.
|
Fleshy dark berry and plum fruit, orange peel, liquorice, dried lavender and spice shower to the finish, nice grip of sandpapery tannin to the finish
|
Concentration of fruit overshadowing other parts of the wine, but very well polished without being jammy.
|
M garnet w Cherry. Herbal, celery nose. Some oak. Plum, beetroot. Palate is sloshy and simple. Tannins are typical and firm. Ok fruit on the palate. good carry through to the back. Ripeness is what lets this one down.
