Copper red colour, 50% opaque. Gentle, mature nose showing only a little pleasant fruit. Smooth texture but with an odd and unpleasant woody tone to the late palate. A big aftertaste showing a little harsh cranberry, harsh but intensely flavoured aftertaste and a medium length finish. 86/100. Decanted 7 hours.
