" Deep, dark core with wide, fading edge. Fascinating nose with combination of youth and some mature notes. Ripe, red berry fruit with cherry, plum and cassis with dark rose aromatics. Sedate, gentle entry into the mouth with grace and elegance. Then a firm spread across the palate revealing all the flavour promised on the nose but with more concentration. Beautiful balance and satin smooth texture. Long, sustained, fruit filed finish. Very attractive now but will develop over ten, twelve or more years. "
