Dark greyish crimson. Coffee and dark fruit on the nose. Savoury. Tough and chewy and rather bitter. (JH)

A deep ruby color is followed by a big, sweet nose of cherry jam and spice, but this wine quickly loses its energy and staying power on the mid-palate and finish. Drink it over the next 5-6 years.

Rich, succulent black fruit. Pretty simple finish, extremely fine tannin. Good classic styling – predictable, not earth-shattering – but certainly tasty! (RH)

Deepest black cherry. Interesting nose – quite spicy and peppery dark fruit. Much darker and more coaly on the palate. Dry, fine grained, nothing in excess but not particularly exciting. A bit drying at the end. (JH)
