G 98
Deep crimson. Very expressive blackberry, praline, roasted hazelnut, espresso crème brulée aromas with lifted Indian spice/ balsamic notes. Deeply concentrated blackberry, dark chocolate flavours, lovely mid- palate volume, plentiful fine chalky/ al dente tannins and well-balanced roasted chestnut, mocha, roasted coffee notes. Finishes gravelly with superb choco-berry fruits. A beautifully modulated claret-style harking back to the original blueprint. Should develop into a classic Grange. Drink 2030–2060 14.5% alc
