  Clear, reddish burgundy colour with pink rim, hundreds of blobby tears that take forever to start.
  Clean, med+ intensity, with aromas of cranberries, red cherries, cassis, soft peppercorns.
  Dry, med- body, med- acidity, med- tannins, med- alcohol, with further tastes of crab apples, roast beef juices, slight marmite, barks and truffles with a nice finish. This wine starts youthful but opens quite well over an hour.

  Bright red colour. Liquorice, raspberry, a bit of tar on the nose and in flavour. Bright, fresh red fruits. Smooth and very enjoyable. Definitely great value.
