Gary Walsh, The Wine Front
says:Blackberry, mint and aniseed, coffee, Demerara sugar and a little pepper. It’s full bodied and richly fruited, with a slight sandiness to tannins, perhaps a little raw, but good and firm nonetheless. Tightens up on the finish and pulls a little savoury, but overall presents with flood of sweet fruit. Obviously youthful, more than a little playful, but may have a few tricks up its sleeve with a few years in bottle.
