"Good full ruby. Perfumed, vibrant aromas of violet, black cherry syrup, marine herbs, minerals and a hint of tobacco for added complexity. The bright, penetrating violet perfume that dominates in the mouth too, with both fresh and candied violet nuances complementing the dark berry and earthy flavours. The aftertaste is long remarkably light on its feet for what is really a sneakily concentrated wine of impeccable balance. Very, very well done. Try this with fish in tomato sauce, meatloaf, grilled burgers and tomato-based pasta dishes. So delicious you won't want to put your glass back down, unless it's because you need a refill."

"The nose is both warm and astringent, with notes of bricks, soil, herbs, cherries and bright red cranberries and strawberries. That berry medley sweetens on the palate, but an enduring, lightly metallic earthiness keeps the fruit in equilibrium. ‡D.C."
