" Deep purple colour, the bouquet is intense and very ripe with brambles, mulberry and boysenberry, accented by black pepper and plenty of smoky wood. A brooding and dense wine, the palate is rich, showing abundant corduroy-textured tannins and good freshness to support concentrated fruit and powerful weight. Long, mocha-enhanced finish. Young, but can be drunk now with food and will certainly improve over 2-3 years. "
