A good, easy drinking, every day Bordeaux. Good garnet colour. Flavours of dried fruits. Light on the berry flavours. Glad I have one bottle left in the cellar.

Light carmine at the rim, oak dominated nose. Medium to full bodied, extracted, moderate tannins, but lacking in fruit - this is a bit like putting a 5 litre engine in a mini. (Bought in Bangkok - 700 odd Baht).

Nose: cassis, plum, green capsicum, slight hint of liquorice, very subtle oak. Subtle barnyard & earthy notes evident after being open for a day. Palate: cassis/blackcurrant, sour cherry, blackberry, juicy black fruit. Hint of green capsicum, + some barnyard & earthy notes evident after being open for a day. Liquorice & spice. Subtle oak. Fine grained, firm, drying tannins. Fresh med - lively acid. Mod length. Good, decent "everyday" claret.

My last bottle. As with my last review, garnet colour and berry notes moving towards dried fruits. Very oaky. I would not leave it too much longer.
