Just outstanding. Big old tannins with dried fruit and gorgeous nose. Decant for an hour

This is drinking incredibly well right now. If you have a bottle, it's in a sweet spot right now. Rich, balanced and smooth.

What a greatwine, outstanding vintage, easy drinking, savoury, delicate & elegant, perfectly balanced, oaky, dark fruits, spicy, toasted notes are in harmony complementing a great acidity

Garnet with ruby red hues, great full body, lots of legs hanging on the glass

Nose, not so expressive, sense of freshness, cherry, dark fruits , blueberry, spicy & toasted notes

Palate, so good, polished firm tannins, great balanced acidity, dark fruits , blueberry, toasted and spicy notes

Aftertaste, excellent

An excellent wine, especially for the price. Medium bodied with subtle red fruit flyovers and a solid tannic structure. What surprises is the application and finesse of this wine which really punches above its weight in subtlety and nuance. Very drinkable now but better in two or three years.
