The colour was quite deep purple red, with quite heavy legs. The bouquet had medium strong spice and jammy fruit. There was plum and berry fruit, and dry vanilla oak finish. This wine had medium to full body, and full fruit with moderate tannic balance.

Note 1 I am not really a wine expert (just an enthusiastic amateur), so please don't take my recommendations as anything more than a rough guide to these wines. I can take no responsibility if you buy a lot, on my recommendation, and then regret it!

Note 2 You may not agree with my evaluation of these wines as a lot of this is quite subjective. I tend to put a lot of emphasis on complexity and intense characteristic flavours and bouquet, so if you disagree you might just have different priorities.
