  Opened an hour before dinner. Red fruit on the nose. The palate was red cherry, cassis, red plums and hints of spices. The finish was moderate to long. A nice wine and a good QPR

  This is a massive wine - tipping the scales at 16%
  Not for the faint hearted!!
  Full on flavour from the outset - packs a real punch
  Rich mulberry fruit
  Sweet oak
  Ripe brooding dark fruits
  Still has some pronounced tannins
  Port like!
  Has plenty of years ahead of it
  I love the fruit bombs but this was maybe just a tad alcoholic even for me!!!

  High alcohol, tannins resolved, lots of vanilla and fruit. Probably starting to fade, so I would drink soon. Not really my style, but if you like modern-style full bodied oaky wines, this is a good example.

  Much better than my previous one. Nice acidity, nice vanilla. Great grenache. Well balanced wine.

  Cowabunga! Vanilla, berries, creme brulee, and more. Not as in-your-face as previous vintages, although that may be due to its relatively advanced age. In any event, I find myself questioning why I don't buy more of this. Medium-to-full body and a great finish. Probably should drink within the next year.
