Tasting Notes

Deep red with ruby highlights. Enticing aromas of redcurrant, plum, iron and tobacco. Rather lush and sweet on entry, then supple and plump for the vintage, but with noteworthy vinosity. Not yet complex but pliant and fresh. Finishes with smooth, fine tannins and very good persistence.

Score: 90

Bright red-ruby. Black-and redcurrant, shoe polish, lead pencil and a gamey nuance on the nose. Dense, sweet and broad in the mouth, with rather cabernet-like currant and lead pencil flavors. Rather withdrawn and dominated today by its structure. Finishes with substantial dusty tannins and very good length.

Score: 87 - 90
