Very pleasant! Chewy red cherries! The petit Verdot really comes through too, lots of floral notes (violets in particular). Dusty tannin. As I regularly find though- alcohol slightly too high for the delicacy of the wine — 9 years ago

8.5

Smoky on the nose with Hints of burnt rubber to begin with! After air it opens up to fruit (black). Palette wise the tannins are smooth but the alcohol is a bit high but nevertheless the fruit is full with long finish, typical SA ash finish — 9 years ago
