Dark red with slight hints of browning. Berries, plum, leather and tobacco and petrol aromas, slight eucalyptus. Surprisingly light-bodied but still strong acidity and tannins, with leather and bitter notes towards the end. Low on fruit aromas. Bitter notes disappeared over time. Long, lingering, complex finish. Really enjoyable.

Insanely intense, lots of tar and tannins. Fruit took many hours to start showing a bit. Not sure what to make of this, therefore not rated.

Alright. Nothing special: Lots of raspberry in the nose, the finish is a bit bitter. For that price ok.
