88/100
Big, solidly structured red with strong sweet plum and berry flavours together with cloves, pepper and cedary oak. A bold, full-flavoured style with good complexity and considerable length although, like earlier vintages, it has an excessively drying finish that needs to be softened by rich food or further bottle age.
