The wine is softened to perfection, it doesn’t contain too much wood or smokiness, it has no rough sourness or piquancy while also not or growing or dissolving into jamminess or sweetness like many overripe samples. It stands firmly and lastingly on a clear, thin edge and it has a phenomenal aftertaste of berries and Plavac mali grape skin. On the nose it is reminiscent of a Portuguese red which our indigenous varieties obviously share a lot in common with. The alcohols didn’t run into liquority but rather, with measured power, they just support the rich structure
