Tasting Notes
Rich ruby with a purple shimmer. Shows plenty of sweet dark berryish fruit on the nose, lots of blackberry and wild raspberry, plus fine tobacco and chocolate notes, some cardamom. Ripe, vivid fruit on the palate, currently still showing somewhat rough tannins, hearty and gripping yet unfortunately not at the level of previous years.
