This is one of the less convincing vintages. The wine has a garnet color with orange reflections and bottle-aged, evolved aromas of jam and fruit preserved in spirits that have a nice concentration and a medium complexity. The structure of the mouthfeel is not great and the acidity seems to be breaking up, while the persistence is discreet. There seems little possibility it will evolve further in the bottle.
