Tasting notes :
A restrained if quite pretty nose combines notes of both red and dark berry fruit with plenty of spice, tea and sandalwood nuances. The middle weight and attractively vibrant flavors possess a lovely mid-palate mouth feel while delivering solid depth and length on the dusty and well-balanced finale. This is really very good and noticeably less oaky than prior vintages.
