Highlights The aroma of this wine is a very complex mixture inclusing discernible notes of ripe black berries, plum, smoky bacon, vanilla, toast, black and white pepper. On the palate, the wine delivers huge mid-palate richness and tremendous length made possible by a big extraction of smooth, well-integrated tannins and lively acidity. Tis is definitely a wine to put down for the medium term, but can be enjoyed in its youth after several hours in a decanter, and served with robust, hearty dishes such as leg of leamb, osso bucco, and strong cheeses.
