Notes
Deep ruby colour, aromas of rose with mint and liquorice. Flavours are full yet balanced thanks to the sweet and elegant tannins. "Very woody, but with loads of ripe fruit underneath with lots of plums and strawberries. Fantastic palate, with a full body and loads of fruit and velvety tannins. Gorgeous fruit, but a little less new wood would make this stupendous. Best after 2006. 400 cases made." (JS) 91 points (The Wine Spectator)
