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.

Vintage 1999
90 points The Real Review
Deep, dark colour with black and tawny reflections; the bouquet is earthy and savoury and just lacks the freshness we might hope for. Some creosote. The wine is very full-bodied and very firm in tannin, a whopper, with tongue-crunching tannins. Not very detailed. A good but somewhat brutal wine. It demands protein-rich food.
