Estimate
...a rich, spicy 'biscuity' bouquet...sweetness of fully ripe grapes and alcohol, a mouthfilling flavour, very good tannins and acidity. Complete.
Tasted from magnum. This bottle blends spicy, nutmeglike aromas with abundant fruit flavors and meaty undertones. It is plenty firm and tannic, but not overly so. The finish is exceptionally long, too.
...blackberry, gravel, a touch of bay leaf and graphite... The palate is medium-bodied, with light tannins...balanced...
