Full bodied red wines have a noticeably textural mouthfeel with bold, complex flavours. Often deeply coloured.
Dry wines have no trace of sweetness at all.

...one of the densest, most concentrated wines of Pauillac in 2008...this gorgeous, well-proportioned, larger than life 2008 should age effortlessly for two decades or more.... this is a no-brainer.
