Clear centre, colour just starting to fade on the rim. Surprisingly young smelling nose, full of blueberries - not what was expected from the appearance. Dry in the mouth, structured and very fruity with lovely flavours accompanied by tannins which complement the fruit wonderfully. An elegant aftertaste, not big but very long and full of dark chocolate. A very good wine. 90/100. Tasted 27/11/08.
