(planted with clones 6 and 337 on cobbly loam): Lovely red berry perfume. Strong, concentrated fruit shows an almost zin-like briary, confectionery character, with hints of co!ee and smoke. From a very small crop due to the lingering e!ects of the spring frost in 2008. The long finish features supple, sweet tannins. Plenty of power and richness here but the least obviously structured today and thus a crowd-pleaser already.
