An intensely perfumed, heady nose: thickly scented. The palate is rich and beautifully textured. Mulitlayered opulence, with ripe black fruits and a pleasing touch of counterbalancing cocoa bitterness. This is well defined: a wine of precision and impeccable balance and harmony.
All the Symington wines had exceptionally deep colours. This one has a particularly deep blackish-purple, still with a blueish hue. On the already-expressive nose I found prunes, something floral and a note of balsam, plus lots of freshness. Relatively open on the palate too. Rather elegant and the hugely sweet fruit almost covers a massive charge of silky tannins. This is almost like a sweet, tannic table wine. Pure and polished. Sweeter than most. One of those wines that some people might easily persuade themselves could be drunk relatively young, Satin textured.
