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.

Deep red colour, purple edge. Toasty, earthy development and chocolate, with savoury, nutty barrel-aged characters of some complexity. Rich, smooth and fleshy, excellent wine. Still very firm in its tannins and acidity, but an excellent red drinking at its peak now. Will continue to do so for many years... at least 10.
