Deep dark core with tight, blue/black rim. Initial nose packed with ripe, dark berry fruit. Plum and cherry are firmly there with some char and vanilla. Deep, full mouth with layers of ripe berry flavour. Definite but soft tannins give good grip. Berry flavours develop all the while and dominate the long finish. Gorgeous now but will reward well.
Vibrant, young characters that drink well now yet lots of potential development.
