  Starting to drink well now although there is little in the way of secondary character yet. Nice rich, touch syrupy but in a pleasant way.
  
  Cork, 14%

  Still deep ruby with some signs of ageing at June 2016. Just got out of cold cellar and seeing how its going.
  Being a house blend , (Cab's. syrah ) the nose showing berries an spice with integrated oak . Just holding in there an ready to drink.
  Palate shows tobacco leafy characters with some sweetness of fruit but maturing quickly .. Still with some soft tannins an medium bodied in length.
  Certainly ready to drink right now an would drink soon, if you have some.
  From 2009 onwards ,vintages of this wine are better.
  Good with beef stews and rare lamb best.

  Blackberries and velvets on the nose. Simple wine, fruity, approachable and full bodied.

  Je réitère les mêmes commentaires que ceux formulés lors de notre première dégustation ... Produit à racheter sans réserves ...

  Robe de couleur rouge violace intense ... Nez sur le chaume, les fruits noirs et le tabac ... Les tanins sont charnus et les papilles goutent la reglisse et le cacao ... La finale est longue ...
