...outrageously beautiful. Dense, powerful and rich... Super-ripe red/purplish berry fruit, wild flowers, licorice and mint play off the huge tannins with real grace.
...spot of bitterness on the tongue, delivered with ripe fruit and some rather tight tannins...lots of tar notes here too, along with the sort of resin and camphor ash...
Raspberry coulis, dried red plums, vanilla, cedar and spice box make for a pronounced and beguiling nose. Full-bodied and very powerful on the palate, yet the tannins are polished and the acidity focused and refreshing.
A muscular style, whose dense tannins uphold flavors of cherry, currant, earth and wild thyme. Compact and chunky, with a light chewy quality to the finish.
Aromatic, firm cherry-fruit nose with a certain coolness to it. Bags of fruit and tannins and great acidity. Truly a generous mouthful, but stylish.
