The wine has a fine, dark red colour with a garnet tint. The nose, both floral and full of fruit, reveals fine smoky notes. On the palate, well-balanced structure on forward mature tannins, mingles with red fruit flavours (redcurrant, blackcurrant), liquorice and spices. The long, lingering finish, displaying a fine harmony between round and full-bodied tannins, bodes well for this characteristic vintage.
