Weekly tasting group RWP #347; 1999 (@ BS): Autumn forest, earth, leather and stable smells in a beautiful and mature bouquet. On the palate a juicy wine with mild acidity, earth, tobacco and chocolate. The tannin still has a soft bite. Beautiful and mature wine.

Dark earth, mushrooms, underbrush, sour black cherry, dark spices tumeric/clove; fairly dense mouth, lots of dry chalky tannins, very enjoyable, at its peak. Have with filet mignon or chicken with herbs in ample sauce.

Bright red in colour. Slight woodland forest on nose. Spicy. Nutmeg hint. Clove. Bit like mulled wine. Strawberry and cherry on palate. Elements of cranberry. Smoothe, good balance. Lots of acidity.

Deep and rich nose. Bit of spice. Deep red colour. Raspberry on the palate. Good acidity and fruit balance. 30 sec plus finish.
