| Big and oaky style. Dense and dark and dusty |
| Inky opaque purple in the glass, this wine smells of blueberry, licorice and a hint of snuffed candle. In the mouth, rich faintly salty flavors of blackberry and blueberry and shot through with licorice and both dried and fresh herbs. Excelletn acidity. Dark and rich but not heavy, with very supple and reasonably restrained tannins. |
| high intensity cherry, cacao, touch smokey. well managed tannin just a bit thin in the mf needs more generosity |
| black current, savoury spice, well managed tannin, oak influence obvious but well integrated - nice weight |
