Black olive and sump-oil. Very rich, gutsy, tannic and superripe. Chewy mouth-coating tannins. Oooff! Very tannic and grippy. Now to 15+ years.

Medium to full red-purple; ripe blackberry/earthy varietal character on the bouquet, then a palate with great depth and power, supported by controlled, savoury tannins and lingering blackberry fruit. The oak handling throughout cannot be faulted.
