G48: dark red, 70% opaque. Big, but dry, In the early palate the tannic dryness wa overwhelming.

Bottler not known. Dark mature brick-red, 60% opaque. Muted nose with lots of alcohol protruding; light perfume with gentle spice. Balanced fruit entry, mature and gently spiced with dried cherry and lots of mace. Less evolved and less complex than the Martinez 1948 drunk alongside. Big, but not subtle. 90/100. Drunk 12-Dec-18.
