Tim Atkin 91/100
Deep, purple red. Rich black fruit - most obviously blackberry, black cherries and plum notes. Voluptuous, full, big and luscious, with hints of pepper, Oriental spice and a touch of smokiness. Aromatic, medium to full bodied and powerful, with good extraction of the sweet flavours of black ripe fruits. Elegant with good texture and firm tannins, giving wine great ageing potential. A touch of mint, with lavender notes. Firm, well balanced oak and long finish with fresh, spicy, integrated mouthfeel.
