Deep ruby colour, strong aroma of tar and sawdust, earth and grilled meat. Plum, sweet cherry, dark chocolate. Strong fine tannin, medium grippy finish, medium + body. Well balanced wine between the fruit and tannin. Still sweet and will last another 5 years.

Almost black core with a dark purple hue. Dense and heavy. Hot aroma, dark berries, varnish. Creamy, plum, milk chocolate, blackberry, mocha. Full bodied, grainy tannin, balanced acidity. Really enjoyable, full flavoured. The hot aroma is less relevant to the palate. Happy to have with or without food. Still well on it path, several years to go.

Dark purple core. Aroma of blackberry, stalks, leaves, strong spice. Plum, blueberry, mocha. Strong grainy tannin, well balanced acidity. A perfectly smooth finish. Strong tannin that will probably soften with a bit more time. Still young, great wine.
