Vintage: 2008
Colour: Red to purpleClosure: Cork
Alcohol: 14.0%
Bouquet: Crushed sea shell, wet stones, some brambly aromas and damp earth
Flavour: Amazing length that goes on and on. Coffee, cherry and tobacco leaf flavours that is full and even. Full mouth coating tannins accentuate the finish. Incredible.
Points: 91 (3+8+13+8+9+50)
Notes: This is a special occasion wine and one that I enjoyed last night with friends and had a glass left over for today. Amazing still today and I avoided tasting it again this morning and forced myself to wait all day. I got this from one of the wine clubs on special for $40 (~720 Kc). Two more in the cellar.....
