Posted: Sun Jun 08, 2014 2:08 pm
Decant: 2½ hours - From magnum. Mature, brick red and with a light rim; 30% opaque. Feminine and attractive nose, perfumed and full of maraschno cherries but with a twist of sourness. Balanced entry, a little think on impact but bulks up quickly developing to a big and complex palate with plenty of layers. Dry, restrained and full of black licorice. A big aftertaste and a huge red licorice finish of enormous length. 95 points
