Description
A keeper. An exquisite wine from an acclaimed vintage, it features lovely plum, rose and dried berry aromas. Medium-full bodied with a ripe centre and a firm grip that leads to a lingering finish. Keep 5-8 years.

Tasting Notes
Full and structured with dusty tannins and lots of ripe fruit. Plenty of cedar, vanilla and cigar box undertones. Pretty ripe fruit to this as well. Needs two or three years to soften. Better in 2020. Score - 95. (James Suckling, jamessuckling.com, Oct. 20, 2017)
