Elegant nose but then uncomfortably chunky tannins. Smooth texture but rather dull flavour. (JR)

Good medium red. Very ripe aromas of raspberry truffle, strawberry and milk chocolate. Lush, sweet and gamey, but with harmonious acids and good chewy verve. Thick but nicely delineated wine, with solid acid/tannin backbone and a long, suave finish.
