Medium to deep garnet red. A bit of Bret on the nose with musty notes, dirty cellar, and damp leaves. Moderate tannins (6/10) and medium bodied. Definitely tastes like a cooler and wet vintage. Earthy notes, herbaceous and only a touch of berries on the palate. Medium finish. Drink till 2019. — 8 years ago
Weighty, meaty, smoky, mineral nose with underripe pineapple skin and green mango, burnt golden syrup, grilled pineapple & plantain or sugar cain.
Palate has a real bottom heavy weight, this is wine with a lot of mineral intensity and stoney depth along aniseed infused Asian pear, stony mineral finish, long with great depth — 10 years ago
