"Inky ruby. Pungent cherry and redcurrant aromas are complicated by tobacco, cedar and dried rose. Very shiraz , offering cherry and dark berry compote flavors and a good wallop of licorice. Tannins build with air and extend through the long, juicy finish, which features building smokiness and a strong floral note. This wine is made from a two-acre plot that was reportedly planted between 1908 and 1920." Vinous, Jul 2010 |
