Nose with blackcurrants, dark plums, noticeable animal notes with blood and meat juices, and some leather. Palate with powerful concentration, blackcurrants, dark plums, rather sweet fruit, well integrated tannins, some mineral, and a fruity aftertaste. 91 p. This wine showed quite a bit of hot vintage character, and showed a bit more like I had expected a 2003 to be!

Dark crimson, spice box, blackberry, baking soda, nutmeg and vanilla on the nose, sweet ripe fruit on the attack with a layered mid-palate of tangy berry fruit and herbs, finish is complex with spice, red fruit and soft tannins
Note: hard to believe this is 11 years old, looks, smells and tastes like a much younger wine
