Posted: 08:15 Sun 30 Nov 2008
Deep red, strongly extracted. Strong scent of blackcurrants and blackberries. Empty entry but flavours develop in the midpalate. Very acidic but complexity of red fruits and citrus flavours is enjoyable. Tannins dominate the initial aftertaste decay into a long and chocolately aftertaste. 85/100. Drunk 30/11/06 after 1 hour in the decanter.
