Not impressed at all! Extremely low acidity and dull. Some dark fruits but not very interesting. The "cocktail wine" that was a mid-teen super Tuscan overshadowed it. I'm thinking if people tried this without the hype or blind their opinions could differ. NYS destroyed this no-backbone silk fruit wine. Shame.

Very nice for Christmas Dinner. Elegance with underlying structure. Mature with some bricking on the edges. Hints of mint and herbaceous qualities with deep rose. It was what I was expecting from this vintage in the North. Very good but not great.

Fruity-tootie, oaky yokie. Not too sure what people see in this. Not impressed at all. A decent quaf, but not much else except the sweet syrupy fruit.
