Not impressed by this wine at the slightest. Seems factory assembled- boring and predictable. Full body, loads of soft dark fruit, a bit jammy, smooth tannin, round in the mouth without any character. What a let down.

Garnet edge with a blood red core. Aromas of dark chocolate, blueberry, cassis, cedar and some herbaceous qualities. Full bodied on the palate, with moderate tannin, medium acidity, and an extended finish. This proves that great winemakers can make great wines in challenging vintages. A pleasure to drink now and has at least another 10 years of prime drinking.

Very good structure and body. Herbal notes throughout and very Bordeaux-oriented. Really held up well two days later, just a bit softer.
