7/30/2010 - Retil wrote: 95 pointsDrunk July 2010. Ruby red, not as dark as I had expected. A nose of savoury meats. Complex palate, well balanced with pronounced tannins perhaps still needing a couple of years. Lovely long finish. A beautiful wine. Looking forward to tasting it again over the next few years. |
