The colour was deep dark purple red. The bouquet had strong spicy plum and currant, with chocolate and wood. There was smooth full currant fruit, medium dry vanilla, and an oak finish. This wine had smooth nicely balanced flavours, and a smooth oak finish.

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.
