June 9, 2013 - A deep red with crimson hues around the rim, the nose is steaped in olive and backed by meaty blackberry fruits.
The palate is showing elegant secondary flavours of dusty olive, with enough primary blackcurrant and kirsch to bolster the palate.
The finish shows subtlety with dark fruits gaining a savoury aspect and enjoyable leathery notes.

June 14, 2012 - Dark deep colour, Pleasant nose with oak overtones but with nice fruit showing through, the palate shows soft smooth tannins which go well with food. Better than expected.

May 23, 2009 - Very dry palette with flavours of cherries and tar. Great length, but a little harsh finishing.
