Rich with cassis fruit overtones. Moderate acidity and velvety texture. My bottle felt a little past it’s best but had enough to suggest that this would have been a very pleasant wine on a winters evening.

l-o-v-e-l-y! ripe and round in the bouquet and in the taste with moca, a whiff of cocoa, lots of red fruit, very good bitters in the finish and ripe tannines; a good backbone and balance inclusive; hooray for the 2009 vintage.

Lots of alcohol, full of flavour and fruit but fizzy on the tongue, is it a second fermentation? Not too keen.

the overrated 2009 vintage shows too much : very dark and concentrated with stewed overripe fruit with a lot of heat and alcohol

Intense carbonation wit associated off-flavors was odd and very off-putting.
