Written Notes
Good looking normal size bottle and has by the neck level. Colour is ruby red, and looking bright and deep. On the nose it is intense, refined and opulent. The taste is perfumed, full-bodied, with multi-dimensional, perfectly balanced and good texture structure. On the palate it is layered and has pepper, perfumed, herbs, leather, tobacco, meaty, spice, dried-fruit, blackcurrant and tropical fruits flavours. The finish is long, extensive and flavorful. This wine is intelligent, transparent and fine. Perfectly stored bottles are still very worthy and will last well for another 10-15 years.
