Description:
This is still a nicely dense ruby/crimson colour, with quite a meaty, earthy nose that is far gamier and more rustic than the younger wines, with a bloody edge to black fruits. It has beautifully delineated fruit on the palate though, with a fine blackcurranty quality emerging, some fudge-like warmth and hints of chocolate. Again there is freshness, with cherry and even citrussy acidity cleansing the mouth and leaving this long and fresh.
