Similar observations to previous note. Appearance: dark purple/red. Nose: very savoury - leather, earth, spice, pepper, roasted meats, black olives, some charred oak with plums, blackberries and mulberries. Palate: full bodied with robust tannins. Ripe flavours. A nice example of this straight varietal.

Dark hue. Nose is true to the varietal - leather, earth and spice. The palate is smooth. Full bodied, great mouth feel and well integrated tannins. Palate shows same notes as the nose, plus black fruits. A very nice wine.

C & C 3/3. Nose 6/7. Palate 9/10. Can't fault it. Plan to get some more.

Soft, easy drinking style with touches of complexity to keep you alert
Smokey dark aromas precede controlled juiciness and oak notes. Hints of rhubarb
