Clear and bright with medium ruby colour and presence of legs. The nose is clean and developing, showing medium+ intensity aromas of dark cherries, dark plums, liquorice, toffee and coffee. It's dry in the mouth, with a medium+ acidity, medium soft rounded tannins, high alcohol, medium+ body and medium+ intensity flavours of dark cherries, dark plums, liquorice and coffee.. The finish is of medium+ length. It's a very good quality wine with a nice concentration and balance between fruit concentration and acidity, round and polished. However it needs more complexity to be outstanding. Drink now, but has potential to develop a bit more of complexity in the next 3-5 years.
