WINE
STEWARD'S COMMENTS : |
| Robe
rouge cerise intense. Nez puissant et concentré. Harmonieux
mariage des fruits rouges bien mûrs et des épices. Bouche
ronde et grasse aux tanins enrobés. Finale solide et fruitée. |
|
An
intense cherry-red colour ; powerful and concentrated on the
nose with a harmonious blend of spice and deliciously ripe soft
fruit. Well-balanced, soft and full thanks to the
well-integrated tannins ; both firm and fruity on the finish. A
wine that will keep well. |
