The colour was quite deep ruby red, and there was fairly heavy legs. The bouquet showed strong spicy berry and vanilla oak. The taste was smooth and soft, with full berry fruit, peppery spiciness, and firm tannin balance. This wine showed quite impressive complexity, and had good fruit wood balance.

Note 1: I am not really a wine expert (just an enthusiastic amateur), so please don't take my recommendations as anything more than a rough guide to these wines. I can take no responsibility if you buy a lot of this particular wine, on my recommendation, and then regret it!

Note 2: You may not fully agree with my evaluation of these wines, as a lot of this is quite subjective. I tend to put a lot of emphasis on complexity and intense characteristic and varietal flavours and bouquet, so if you disagree you might just have different priorities.
