big and delicious and drinking fantastically well. Wonderful nose of blackberry, cherry and violets. Big and fat on the palate with huge sweet blackfruit. Loved it.

Excellent, well structured blend that was quite tasty - Dark, well concentrated with a nose of plum, cherry, chocolate, spice and vanilla, well balanced, nice structure with good tannic and acidic backbone, sweet/smooth on the palate with excellent length, well done and much better than the 1st bottle we had a few years ago (90 Points).

Nice nose with hint of plum. Rich, round mouthfeel with no hard edges. Clearly a new-world fruit bomb. Just a bit hot going down. Have 2 more in the cellar.

What a treat! Spectacular. Lively. Full bodied, huge amount of red fruit. Not dead nor flat at all.

Actually best during the first half hour after opening. Fruit cake and smoke, with a fat lush body that got bland as the wine breathed
