Attractive youthful colour, darkening to a bright yet deep ruby at the centre. Decent nose: hedgerows, touch a spice and a bit of burnt plastic. With aeration, the plasticky note develops into very clear raspberries. Good fruit attack, but develops a slightly acid note, which makes it feel disjointed. Quite green and raw on the middle with soft, yet substantial tannins. Spice on the finish. Just doesn't seem to hang together. Poor to Fair.

Nice Bordeaux. Smooth and simple. Dry and a little air helps soften the flavor.
