Solid wine. Good concentration of plum and berry fruit. Other flavors exist but they are fuzzy and nondescript. Somewhat tannic and tight, or at least not very expressive. I struggled to latch onto anything attractive about this wine, though I have no serious complaint either.

Complex aromatics of smoke, gravel, red and black fruits and licorice. There's some balsamic lift too. It is quite savoury in the mouth with good presence and sinewy tannins. Flavours build and length is good.
Upon opening it was extremely tannic. Put the cork back in and waited a day for it to integrate and it iturned into a very nice wine. Good nose nice fruit, good QPR.

A wine of savoury nuance and build, upon which delightfully perfumed things play. It is fresh, clean and bright with plenty of character and excellent freshness to the finish.

This wine is worth more than 89 points. We are judging wine by its label and its reputation. We are not drinking the wine in absolute terms.
