  Deep garnet colour. Pronounced and developed nose with prune, raisins, fig, eucalyptus, tobacco, wet leaves, cigar box and black pepper. Pronounced taste of raisins, prune, fig, cigar box, tobacco, wet leaves, eucalyptus and black pepper. Medium long and sweet finish. High acidity. Medium (-) tannins. Full body. A very good LBV that has peaked. Drink now. Goes well with chocolates based desserts or blue cheeses.

  Probably starting to get a little past it's drinking window but held up relatively well. Nice red and dark fruit nose. Perfect amount of sweetness, great wine to ring in the new year!
