95/100
Massive wine with the sort of dense, ripe flavours that can only be achieved by using old vines. Big and very complex red with chocolate/mocha, tar, liquorice, annise and vanilla flavours. The wine has a firm structure of ripe tannins to balance fruit and alcohol sweetness and promote a long life.
