Friday, February 10, 2012 - Drank at Davies

A really full bodied rich wine with no visible signs of ageing, a deep garnet red.

This has one heck of a nose, the cassis and cherry with a bit of chocolate hits you in the face straight out of the bottle, it gets even stronger after a while in the decanter.

I can see why there are mixed views on this wine as it is such a strong powerful style. All I can say is that it much more new world in style.

I really like it although you might get a bit tired of the fruit slapping you in the face on every sip.
