Color: Deep garnet Nose: Plum, Earth, vanilla Taste: Plum, liquorice, smoke, vanilla, chocolate and leather
This is a medium/bold wine with well integrated tannins and a nice lingering finish. This has aged well and would guess it has a little more time. The best Oriel I have tasted so far. A Philip Melka effort.

Alcohol content was quite high - 14.5%. This is a full bodied wine, with strong tannins. It has a metallic nose, but full fruit in the mouth.
