Full red, good hue for age. Strange, surgical spirit notes - possibly from high alcohol. Some aged mellow characters as well, earth and leather. But palate is a bit lean and lacking depth. Earthy, funky and disappointing flavour depth and length.
Tasted: 13/09/2011
Drink: 2011 to 2011

Medium to full red-purple; a dense and complex bouquet with spicy, savoury edges to the array of dark fruits; a powerful, savoury palate with blackberry fruit, and fine, lingering, squeaky tannins. Drink to 2016.
