Perfumed, ripe local white grapes are the backbone of this soft, full-bodied wine. It's rich, full of yellow fruits and plums. Spice gives a touch of pepperiness that is then cut by the final acidity. It's attractive now, but will be better from 2016.

This is a tough wine, filled with tannins and missing out on the fruit. Its structure is powerful, dark and dry, packing a punch of the hard texture. There is some juicy fruit, although it is not likely to ever soften the wine completely.
