Tasting notes
Dark crimson. Very rich and fruity on the nose. Round and polished. A little lacking real verve and with just a hint of raisins but a very solid mouthful. (JR)

Mid crimson. Rather luscious and polished on the nose. Very fresh and well judged and easy, even if it doesn’t have a very long future. But very flattering for now. (JR)
Bright red-ruby. Very ripe, expressive aromas of black raspberry, kirsch licorice and iron, with a candied fruit quality adding verve. Silky and sweet on entry, then pliant in the middle, with sound acidity and sexy floral and violet nuances framing and lifting the smoky red fruit flavors. Plenty of personality here, and not at all overdone. Finishes with suave tannins and very good length. An outperformer for the year.
Dark, bright cherry colour and very sweet cherry fruit aromas as well. Smooth, dry and just about fresh. (JH)
