Made in a style, which I personally don't like, with raisined fruit, English Christmas cake and spice box aromas. Almost full bodied on the palate, providing grip thanks to well constructed tannins BUT sooo boooring as dried fruit in red wine might add complexity in small amounts, but single handed... Go figure. Well made in its style; just boooring.

Man, a lot of people with a lot of fancy words. I’m not a huge wine guy, so for me. I like it! Beyond that my palate says… do another bottle

Classic nose, long on finish. Starts with dark fruit but ends with sweeter ripe fruits.

This wine NEEDS decanting. Fully mature, with classic aromas. Very distinguished indeed. More cerebral than cordial, but very fine indeed.
