This is only the second vintage ever produced of this wine, the first being 2000. Pale ruby-brick colour. Incredible nose – intense aromas of rose oil, violets, freshly crushed cherries, dark chocolate with the slightest whiff of game and forest floor. The palate is rich, concentrated, full bodied, with tons of red cherry fruit and layers of earthy complexity. Medium to high acidity and a medium to firm level of very finely grained tannins. This wine is still youthful in fruit profile though the extra maturation afforded undoubtedly contributes to its accessibility at this stage. Very long finish. Drink now to 2020. Tasted June 2009.
