Dark purple. The black fruits–dominated nose shows a great deal of depth; oak is very present but it remains under control for a fine balance with the fruit. In spite of its ripeness, it retains a nice freshness on the palate. The fine-grain, powdery tannins have just enough firmness through the opulent finish. This is an achievement combining finesse and generosity. A great wine.
