3/6/8.3 = 17.3 out of 100 - 86.5
Nose very inviting.
Needs to breath for some time - say 2 hours minimum after decanting. Would improve significantly with age. 2011 vintage.

Medium bodied. Very approachable. Food friendly acidity. Hint of spice. Red fruit dominant-plums and cherries. Very enjoyable.
