Tasting Commentary:

The wine has a deep cherry-black hue, which is emphasized by its bordeaux-red rim.
On the nose there are aromas of black fruit such as blackcurrant and blackberries.
A dash of oak highlights the fruity character of the wine, giving spicy aromas of vanilla and caramel to the wine. The mouth-feel is smooth and voluptuous. This is a rich and powerful wine, made from fully-ripened grapes giving the palate its flavours of luscious, ripe fruit.
The wine has a good structure with well-integrated, silky tannins.
This wine can be kept for 5 to 7 years and goes well with roast-meat dishes and cheese platters.
