Clear, opaque garnet. Good intensity nose of oak, black cherry and raisin. The maturity of the nose is defied by the freshness of the fruit on the palate. More like an Aussie fruit bomb than a Bordeaux, with high alcohol and still-rough tannins. Delicious but could be better integrated and more complex. Probably at its best now.
