Mooie dieprode paarse kleur. Hout, cassis en zwarte bessen. Veel fruit weinig tannines. Prima balans maar niet bovenmatig complex. Goede zuren. Wel ietwat krachtenloos.

Wasn't expecting a lot given the vintage and so was mildly surprised at the outcome: dark garnet in hue, opulent bouquet of cedary earthy tones, and lots chewy, berry fruit, some mocha, pretty well structured. Would like more but that is unlikely to occur.

Nose reveals red currant, toastiness and a deep spice. Even some anise and a streak of blue fruits. Has some nice, soft complexity. Palate is medium bodied, with solid acidity and medium, softened tannins. This is very approachable now, and shouldn´t need too much time to start hitting its groove. Very pleasant.
