Vintage 1993
86 points The Real Review
Great vintage. Deep, dark, blackish colour with tawny tints and almost yellow edges. Smells overripe and earthy, bordering on 'dead fruit' character. Suspect the fruit was overhung. Some vegetal as well as almost oxidised fruit characters. The tannins are fairly gritty, sandy and the wine is not one of the most elegant.
