"Deep crimson; its bouquet has a strikingly complex array of black characters that run all the way from the first whiff to the finish and aftertaste: licorice, tar, bitter chocolate, blackberry, prune and plum. The tannins are prominent, and play their part with each successive sip of the steadily building impact on the very long palate, but they are in balance with the fruit and oak of an extremely powerful Grange."

"Fresh red berries and a hint of smoke on the nose, with a sexy floral quality coming up with air. Juicy, gently sweet raspberry and cherry flavors display a pinot-like delicacy. Very fruity and almost shockingly polished for a wine at this price point, finishing with admirable clarity and lingering sweetness. This wine is always an excellent value and this year's release is $5 cheaper than last year's bottling."
