Deeply colored and with promising clarity, a little chocolatey and lilac, cedar, chalky and baked apricot, hoisin sauce, and graham cracker, beautifully savory and plummy, lush and with lifting spice and acidity. Long layered finish.

Old school claret. By this bottle I'd guess at peak. Tannins ripe, good persistance. Benefitted from 1 hour decant
