"Dark red . . . . Intense. Brilliant. Clean. Average intensity. Complex shades of spice and candied fruit and brandy. Cherry. Smoky and slightly meaty. Very spicy . . . . Intense . . . . Very palatable with a hint of ink and laurel sauce. Soft attack and melted on a caressing structure with a very fine touch that evolves soft, airy, velvety and at the same time textured towards a very melted finish; very tasty with notes of blackberries, ink, light vanilla, liquorice; complex and very, very persistent. Fine wine. Beautiful balance and creates an irresistible urge to drink." Jean-Marc Quarin, Quarin.com, Jan 1993 |
