Very dark red, hints of purple. Took a long time to open up. Great nose, understatd fruit, complex. Lovely warm mouth feel, exceptionally well intergrated and complete. Tannins are not promounced but there is plenty of grip there. Well leave alone for ayear or two.

Solid dark ruby wiht a violet tinge. Lovely nose of cherries and forestal notes. Disappointing in the mouth, mouthfeel a littel thin, tannins well softened. Medium lenght, soft and well balanced.
