This is a delicious wine that is aging slowly and gracefully. It is still quite dark in color, with a cigar box nose. The cab dominant palate has incredible freshness and delicious flavor with no unpleasant notes. The tannins are plentiful, but fine and don't really dry out the long finish. This is so balanced and elegant and it should have a long life.
Open up with scent of floral spices and a hint of black fruits lingering in the bowl. On the palate this one has medium body and plenty of sweet tannin and moderate acidity. Feeling of black and red fruits are there too. Quite long finish.

94/95.Has lifted aromas of iron, leather, earthy cedar, mint, forest fruits +blueberries. A profound well oaked solid juvenile very refeshing wine with excellent length. Superb value at around 60 Euros! Love the 13%. Trade tasting: Improves in the Glass. Can be laid down 20-30 years but drinks so well now!

13%. 94/95. Almost profound. A lovely wine which was continuously developing after 8 hrs aeration. Good value at 60 pounds.
