An outstanding wine. Opaque, crimson mauve colour. Superb nose, filled with the aroma of violets, blackcurrant spice, hints of earth and liquorice followed by a marzipan end note. The structure of the wine is tight, yet yields concentrated flavours of earth and blackpepper. Excellent length and persistence. Fine grained dry tannins, followed by very long aftertaste of liquorice, spice confectionery and blackcurrant. Cellar 4-5 years.
RATING: 94/100
