Well-balanced with tannins that still pack some punch despite the age. Definitely from a hot vintage, but the raisin/prune fruit profile isn't over the top. Very enjoyable, and a solid value.

Light-medium ruby colour with orange flecks. Aromas of spice/cardamom, cloves, currrant, strawberry. Medium-full bodied, racy and fresh, with notes of strawberry, currant, and minerals. Moderate-long finish, 40-45s, with red berry fruit. Excellent!

Showing really well, with still-vibrant fruit and rich depth of flavor that's appealing. Solid stuff.
