DMZ Concerto 2009

Deep core, bright rim. Nose takes a while to get into gear then goes into overdrive with full delivery of ripe plum, mulberry, espresso and freshly ground, black pepper. Behind the full aromatic flourish is a delightful floral fragrance of red rose and some violet. Rich and full flavoured in the mouth with already a smooth yet lively flow across the palate. Good, yet supple tannic backbone. Seductive and very appealing. Delightful, floral note in long finish. Easy to drink now yet has great development potential and should be allowed to develop. Enjoy now and over the next four to six years.
