Black fruit, spice. Touch of sweetness on front palate, big and weighty with intense fruit. Cedar smoke, grippy tannins and persistant acidity. Will gain in complexity with 1 to 5 years of bottle maturation. A serious wine to accompany fine cuisine. Good with red meat dishes, aged steak, stews, smoked meat and chicken. International Awards : 3 stars in Decanter Magazine.
