Big day tasting in Constantia so minimal notes; medium ruby; medium intensity aromas of ripe black fruit, black plum, cassis, baking spices, vanilla; dry, medium plus acid, medium plus tannins, high alcohol, medium plus body, medium intensity flavors consistent with aromas, but with an unpleasant bitterness, fruits taste too old
