The palate is rich, with excellent depth andconcentration of flavour - ripe plums, hint of chocolates,blackberry and black pepper flavours are all balanced againstthe vanillin oak background - fine grained tannin structure andlong blackberry spice aftertaste. Cellar 8-10 years - anoutstanding red.\Z
