"Deep purple-crimson; an outstanding vintage for Blackwell, with a wonderful mix of intense black and red berry fruits, licorice and mocha oak; good as the flavours are, so is the tapestry of the texture of the wine, finely worked and balanced. Rated:96 points"- James Halliday, wine companion.
Colour: Dense, inky dark red colour with purple hues.
Bouquet: Intense layers of ripe raspberry and blackberry aromas with licorice and vanilla orchid afterthoughts.
Palate: The opening act is all about intense, full bodied black forest cake flavours with soft texture. This opening integrates seamlessly with a pleasing grainy, chocolate like mouth feel and some anise and mocha characters at the finale. It evokes an image and feeling of wrapping oneself in the big purple velvet curtain at the state theater. Serving suggestion: Juicy rib eye steak.
