Deep ruby core that fades and becomes orange to the edges. Pronounced aromas of blackberry, fresh cut grass, paprika, graphite, coffee. High but softened tannins, intense blackberry fruits, grass, pepper, paprika, coffee. Very long finish, of the blackberry fruits and coffee, lasting for minutes. Excellent wine!
Medium ruby core, with orange and fading edges. Pronounced aromas of violets, paprika, grass, and cloves. Tannins softened, and intense flavours, of pepper, grass, red cherry, redcurrant, paprika, grass, cloves, tar, coffee. Lots of sweet berry juice of the finish, that lasted very long. Great!
Medium garnet, with some edge fading. Blackberry and mint aromas, with a touch of cinnamon and lavender. High tannins, flavours of red cherry and blackberry, mint, grass, pepper. A good persistence of the blackberry fruits, lavender, and grass. Nice!
