It offers the highest degree of finesse and elegance with good structure. It has an airy grace and delicate fleshiness. Quite firm, long in the mouth, with a nice fullness and firm tannins. Fresh aromas of red cherry, earth and a whiff of forest floor character. The colour is dark red. The succulent, rich and slightly more concentrated medium weight flavors possess slightly better depth.
