Mid garnet, bricking to the rim. Floral and cedar nose, in the mellow red fruit to cedar spectrum, with just a slight hint of tobacco coming through on the finish after an hour or two. Attractive and satisfying without being startling. Fresh, sweet-fruited attack. Rounded, silky mid-palate with a good core of sweet fruit, some interest around the edges without huge complexity. Absolutely à point. A mellow, inviting and all too easy to drink wine. Really very pleasant. ***1/2

Deep garnet. Beautifully fragrant, floral and with quite a deep whiff of cigar leaf. Mid weight, nicely balanced. Not the most complex on the palate, but very decent with enough interest. Fully resolved but no hurry. ***1/2

Wine Education Service - Fine Old Bordeaux (LSE): Slightly tawny, opaque.
A sweet attractive nose, baked fruit.
Fruity attack, good tannin balance, smooth mid palate, pretty long.
