The depth here is immediately apparent. There's voluptuous richness of liquorice and black fruits, a wonderful benefit of cellaring until now. Firmness and concentration will allow for more time,years in fact, but this is gorgeous drinking right now.

Attractive sweet red fruits, spice and a little brambly complexity; the palate is generous on entry and then firms up to finish with a balanced dry and savoury aspect; excellent winemaking.
