With a palate of plums, subtle spices, structural tannin and exceptionally long length, this vintage of Frux Frugis shows the reward which wonderful weather and well tended vines can bring to a wine.

Impenetrable, inky black colour with intensely concentrated black fruit, deep plum, spice and expensive chocolate richness. The wine, despite its big intense style, retains buoyancy and freshness of fruit. It is a powerhouse of a wine that will cellar for many years. A genuine "tour de force."

Saturated deep red/purple colour. The bouquet is very ripe and appealing, with sweet blackberry to black cherry nuances, these flavours translating faithfully onto the very full-bodied palate. A powerful, deep-flavoured wine, with excellent structure and generous tannins. It has great balance in spite of its bigness. A luxurious wine.
