Sweet flowery nose, loads of red fruit and cardomom coat the pallet. Pepper and mild tannins on the finish. Wonderful to drink without food, but plenty of spice and acidity to hold up to a steak or barbeque.

The nose was prickly like TCA but without the wet cardboard. Instead I got cooked cabbage and maybe some nail polish as well, so it may have been VA. There was decent fruit and a nice dusty wild berry finish, but in total I think this was flawed.

Juicy, full, a bit raisined but holding up quite well, with lots of black fruit jam and spicy tones.
