" Inky black with bright purple rim. Super ripe, berry fruited nose with cherries, plums and sweet spice. Big flourish of lavender in the background. Beautifully succulent in the mouth where cherry and plum are the major players. Full bodied with great balance and smooth flow with supple tannins. Big and generous in every way. Long, full fruited finish. Gorgeous now but has loads of development to prove over many years to come. "
