  Purple hue with lighter rim. Fragrant in nose, pack of spices and herbals, m/m- bodied in mouth, a lovely sweet core. but unripe somehow, no enough weight and flavours to support the acidity. Need time? Not confident with such a lighter body. Enjoyable now for sure.

  Fascinating purple colour, strong violet smell. A bit sour in mouth and less structure, only 12% alcohol, maybe the grape were not fully matured that year and only has a limited level of sugar for ferment. Probably the better grape all used to make Legacy.
