On opening, I felt like this was a bit simple and fruit forward.l, but give this an hour! The color is a beautiful tawny with browning on the edges. On the nose: tar, charcoal, roses, leather, dried flowers and raspberry. On the palate, fantastic acidity, dense dried red fruit, currant, strawberry, rose, leather, charcoal, amazing complexity, and still dense tannic finish. Stunning and near perfection.

1978. Still very youthful. Disappointment compared to the Brovia 1978 side by side.

Sadly, probably heat damaged at some point. Tawny color. Smelled and tasted like port.
