Very deep red, still with a good purple rim; enormously powerful roasted, hot-year bouquet with coconut from oak intermingled with fruitcake and chocolate. Tremendous power and depth of flavour; the tannins coat the mouth and the wine is robust and massive, with lashings of gripping but smooth/ripe tannins, all of it coming together superbly at the finish and aftertaste. A top-line Grange, and a good example of the more forceful style of Grange. It's a monster, which will seemingly live forever. (2% cabernet sauvignon)
