Note di degustazione
Tasted blind. Herbal, distinctive nose. Just a little bit raw on the palate. Slightly rustic tannins but a good effort. (JR)

Silky, correct nose with a bit of oak on it. I do wonder whether a half-accurate taster, tasting it blind, wouldn't criticise it for the obvious oakiness. Still lots of tannin. I suspect you could find more pleasure per penny in the lower reaches of the 2005s. (JR)
Very dark crimson. Lively and fresh on the nose. Very, very ripe and round – almost California in texture! But then there’s something slightly bitter on the finish. Trying too hard? Almost St-Émilion drying tannin structure. Sour. (JR)
