Showing the first signs of a browning rim. A lovely, rich, maturing Cabernet nose; powerfully proportioned mint, cassis and liquorice (and definitely wine gums, too). Quite a chewy mouthfeel (sticky, even – those winegums again). Still tannic, but the acid comes through even more, and the first signs of secondary flavours. Quite a drying finish.
Big and alcoholic, not elegant but plenty of taste,
and demands food.
86/100
