" Opaque with dark purple, grainy edge. Beautiful wave of floral notes to start with: violets and dark rose. Followed by ripe mulberries, dark cherry and rich plum. Super smooth entry into the mouth and great tumble of youthful, ripe berry fruit flavours, rich toast and lots of spice. Rich and creamy flow with fine texture and supple tannins. Vanilla and chocolate join to make even more complex characters. Long, full fruited finish. Very easy to drink now but will well reward five, six and more years in the cellar. "
