Medium cherry-red colour. High toned nose shows a disconcerting musty edge for the first 30 minutes, but does eventually leave the scene. Sweet raspberry is the main aspect remaining on the rather ‘thin’ nose. The palate is sweet and elegant, nicely balanced though not very concentrated. The tannins are a little grainy, but you need to hold the wine in your mouth to find them. Tasty and elegant, with good length. Elegance over concentration here, but eventually a very enjoyable wine for all that.
