Note di degustazione
Very dark blackish, purplish crimson. Intense, meaty nose that may be just the job with tonight's partridge. Spicy and treacly nose. Very smooth tannins initially and polished fruit, with a backlash of fine tannins and acidity on the end but sweet on the way to the dry finish. Very fine for the money and relatively accessible. Lightly salty; hugely savoury. This almost qualifies as luscious! GV (JR)

Opaque magenta. Mineral- and spice-accented dark berry and cherry aromas are complemented by a smoky nuance that builds with air. Concentrated blackberry and bitter cherry flavors show very good depth and take a sweeter turn on the back half. Finishes emphatically spicy and quite long, with supple, well-knit tannins lending shape to clinging cherry and floral pastille notes.
