Deep yet subtle concentration, lighter oldskool claret weight, sweet plum, chocolate, soft ripe cherry … sweet, pleasant, fine tannins … hold for another couple of years

Webinar hosted by The Wine Society, UK, with tasting wines sent in advance. "Bordeaux Blends from around the World."
This is a long standing favourite of mine and I was not disappointed. Medium garnet colour. Lovely nose, earthy, with cinnamon, peppermint and floral overtones. The palate is smooth, nicely matured already. Long and well balanced, with good acidity. Excellent.

On the nose, it's charming and light with aromas of red and dark berries, light spicy notes of tobacco leaves and cedar. fresh on the mouth, with soft fine tannins and a medium- aftertaste.

No formal notes, on a night with a number of different wines. I remember a nice leathery note on the nose and it being a nicely integrated wine.
