The wine displays a deep colour, while the hot, sunny conditions of the vintage show through on the nose with notes of yellow and black fruits and touches of roots, irises and sweet spices.
The noble ageing of the wine comes through again on the palate with hints of vanilla and subtle toast. The power in mouth still comes very much to the fore at this stage bringing a sensation of warmth which needs to integrate further.

It was the kind of vintage that allowed you to choose exactly when you wanted to pick. It was also a vintage in which different styles and creativity could be expressed.
