What a find; what a bargain. Perfectly balanced and ready to drink. Lovely black current and smooth tannins. Could easily have gone another three years. Hate to have finished the last bottle! (750 views)

Dark purple colour. and a little alcoholic. Restrained red and dark fruit, graphite, high-class dark chocolate, dark cocoa, coffee, spices, vanilla, light mint, and herbaceous notes. Tightly wound, even on day two. The high alcohol is lightly warming (15% ABV). Full-bodied, with great concentration, and there also is plenty of ripe tannin, and good acidity. The wine is defined by its ripeness, generous fruit and creamy oak. But big picture, the wine feels designed and artificial, and lacks character. (1945 views)

Pure silk. Black fruit, earth, wild herbs and a touch of sweet oak. Aging beautifully with silky tanin and mouth watering acidity. Still has 5 years or more in it's prime. (1408 views)

Intense and complex, gives layers of aromas in pepper spice, thyme, dark blackberries and cherries. It has velvety and well defined tannins. All these great flavors sits on your tongue and lingers. (1392 views)

It's still very much in the zone. Ripe, and rich with elegant cassis, fresh soil, and red and purple flowers. Med/med+ persistence, with lots of warm layers. A few really good years remain. recommended (1914 views)

Decanted for an hour before pouring. Deep ruby red with no hints of discoloration. Terrific nose consisting of blueberries, pencil shavings, black peppercorns, toast and mint. Harmonized tannins and acidity. Layers of black peppercorns, dried figs, mint, cocoa, cassis and black licorice. A wonderful long finish that left me wishing we had one more bottle in the cellar.

Wonderful wine with terrific mouthfeel and balance. Layers of cocoa, licorice, fruit compote, mint, toast and blueberries. The acidity is just high enough to support a complex structure and nice long finish. (1436 views)
