  Deep red in colour, with plums and spice on the aromatic nose. Medium-full bodied with a very elegant style and velvety, rich (but not too rich) texture. More plums and pepper and a hint of mint (on the second day) on the well balanced palate: fruit is dominant but there are supporting acid and light tannins too. Classy wine that's ready now but should last a while (A-).

  Violet black deep ruby red at Oct 2016 . v/youthful
  Classy Sweet Plum ,Prune, Ripe shiraz leaping out of glass with lovely newish vanilla oak. Classic , an whats is all about. So fresh an clean .
  On the palate same sweet plummy fruit , rich mid palate an great length with lovely soft oily tannin to loose over time due to good oak used. Lovely wine in any way . Will live another 5 to 10yrs min. Due to the great fruit. Very good year for Pyrenees area an it shows here , Lovely Sweetness with elegance an depth. No wonder triple trophy Winner . U cant buy must better than this , will score an 1 -2 points more in a couple of years if cellared well . Worth seeking out . Super wine for rare beef , duck or pheasant. Very Rich food required.
