Dense red-purple; the typically rich and powerful bouquet has layers of dark berry fruit and integrated and balanced oak. What makes it unusual is the distinct hint of chocolate, which appears again on the silkily powerful palate. Here there is an array of all of the fruit flavours one could possibly expect. The oak balance and integration is better than any five-year-old Grange I can remember, the tannins perfectly balanced into the bargain.
