Purple ruby, bilberries and plums on the nose, dry, smooth tannins with dark fruits, spice and black pepper. Ripe, drinking well - enjoyably well.

2012: very dark, inky. Liquorice, blackberry, chocolate, like a Christmas liqueur chocolate. Some fennel/minty notes, lightly medicinal. Full, powerful, warming. Dark black fruits, meaty notes. Lacking aromatic spice. Quite new worldy.
