The colour was deep purple red. The bouquet had strong plum and berry fruit, vanilla and medium wood. There was full plum fruit, vanilla and spice, and a chocolate and long firm dry wood finish. This wine was complex and full bodied, and quite impressive.
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.
