Tasting notes

Tight brick-red colour. Fine nose with hints of oak, tobacco, blackcurrant, stable, some red berries. Concentrated and powerful Bordeaux-copy in the mouth. Soft style, but fine fruit. Decent acids. The tannins gives a bit powdery feel which I don't like so much. But the aromas in this wine is very nice indeed. Still quite primary and will last. Good.
