This is pretty solid. Blackberry and plum flavours with saltbush, peppercorn, mint and toast. A bit of vanilla too, nut understated, as much in the creaminess of the mouthfeel as the flavour. The tannin here though has a bit of class to it; etched, fine-grained, convincing. There's a good deal of heft to this wine. Its satisfying.

Very deep, dark, dense purple-red colour, stains the glass, while the bouquet is a riot of coconut, chocolate, vanilla and some peppery high-notes. It's very full bodied and rich, fleshy, dense and almost opulent, with lashings of soft tannins and generous helpings of everything, oak included. It just needs time. A great cellaring proposition.
