Really powerful, firmly tannic, great dark fruit and inner spiciness just like all vintages of this wine, but this seems like it's hardly evolved at all. Brilliant wine.

Very rich and powerful. Aromas are mostly tertiary, with some paprika and fennel. Black fruits and pepper on the palate. A bit too hot for my taste on the finish, but overall a great wine for the price. Traditional and true to place.

Not detailed notes. Good quality fruit. Tasting fresh but with age characteristics starting to show.
