At the bottling the wine was still youthfully tight, with firm tannins balanced by mouthwatering acidity which certainly pointed to an incredibly optimistic future. The wine displays a bright ruby red colour. Aromas and flavours of cherry and mulberry are backed by hints of caramel, vanilla and cocoa. It has an ideal structure to pair well with a broad range of cuisines, especially those based on meat. A splash in the decanter while the wine is young will make it a great dinner companion, or, for those with patience, a candidate to lose in the wine cellar for a few years. Patience will be rewarded as the wine evolves into an elegantly complex, supple and delicious nectar.
