"Lovely dark, tight complex nose. This is a different style of wine, with wonderfully dark, spicy fruits, some sweetness and a delicious earthy, minerally edge. Quite beguiling. The palate is structured and full with lovely smooth tannins and nice, dark earthiness under the fruit. Complex, long and elegant. I think I’ll check out more of the 1986 vintage. Excellent."
