Tasting notes

This has recently been bottled. Deep brick colour, yellow rim. Very good smell of tar, minerals and slight hints of roses. Powerful in the mouth. Great concentration of mature fruit. Complex hints of tar, leather, cherries, liquorice and a great rosy minerality that grew stronger and stronger with airing. Good acidity and typical tough tannic structure. Good length. This wine is really alive and kicking. Will still hold for a long time.
