This has filled out in the past year. It has the same peppery blue fruits and blackberries, decent minerals and spice. Has a solid and gripping finish. Better. 13.5%.

A deep colour, still with a touch of purple; blackberry and spice on the nose and palate, youthful but forward; some tannin still and only modest length. Will keep and should improve.
An elegant black wine. Has fullish aromas of dusty blackcherrries, earth, some coffee, mint, limestone, iron and raspberries. Its medium bodied modern, nicely concentrated and quite stylishly oaked freshly fruited palate finishes shortish, refreshing and lightly drying.

Peppery, somewhat sanguine bouquet. Considerable power and grip, with good depth, structure, and balance.
