- Clear, deep garnet colour - Clean, medium intensity nose - Primary aromas of red cherry, black cherry and black plum - Secondary aroma of vanilla - Tertiary aroma of mushrooms - Dry palate, medium (+) acidity, high tannin, pronounced intensity - Same flavours as on the nose, now also leather and dried meat - Finish is long - Balance and complexity are excellent, overall quality is very good - There is still primary fruit and some freshness, drink now or in a couple of years, will not improve with further ageing

What a difference a year makes! Very nice, thick red fruit and tannins are still there but more integrated. Drink now plus another 5 years. What a joy!

Lighter and fresher compared to other vintages; also lower in alcohol. I think this is in prime drinking window now.

OK, but too 'hot' and sweet for my liking, could well be the effect of the vintage, I had this wine before in other vintages which showed better.
