" Dark core to dense ruby colour. Evolved, rich and complex maturity featuring a balsamic quality and masses of super-ripe dark berry fruit laced with a dash of quinine. The palate is unashamedly opulent, massive flavour delivery and the structure to support it all. Velvety palate, complex, seductive and multi-faceted, glimpses of chocolate, liquorice and herbs, and the pleasure to experience such a superb wine, which will go on improving. "
