Deep purple color, very pleasant, complex aroma of black berry, violet, cherry and vanilla, with mild hints of oak and toffee. Layered, deep structures of berries keep coming, but are never overpowering. Round, smooth tannins and long, lingering aftertaste (16 June 2007).

This one was my favourite at the Tautec wine-tasting in Brussels, Belgium. Outstanding!
