Looked garnet in the glass. Grenache coming through on the nose. Not a forceful wine, this had soft tannins and low acidity, giving a soft mouth. No beast this but plenty of fruit at the black end and some earthy quality.

I love this wine. Still early in its development, but already taming the underlying power. Nose is full of cassis and black cherry which follows through onto the palate with a hint of vanilla, although far from oak. Still quite tannic on the finish - will benefit from another couple of years in the cellar although eminently drinkable already.

Nothing too spectacular but solid.
